Your teen driver does not have the benefit of your experience. This is why they are 60% more likely to be in a collision. Inexperience, distractions and poor decision making are the leading causes of these collisions.

 

The drive for life Novice Driver Program is for novice drivers who a) have just completed their G1 and are beginning to learn to drive and b) for those who are preparing for their G2 or G road test and need extra experience and training to become safer on the road. Our simulator based training lets novice drivers experience the widest range of challenges without the risk. Traditional driver education focuses on learning to control the car. Unfortunately, most collisions are a result of a bad decision-not losing control of the car. We're different. We teach novice drivers where the danger is by putting them in these situations without the risk. drive for life starts by training the brain, then the feet- a better way to learn- and creating safer drivers who are more aware of their driving environment. You will achieve this by learning how to effectively use our proprietary SPOT technique to anticipate various driving situations: Scan, Predict, Options Available, Take Action.

 

The $399 (+GST) Novice Driver Program consists of 5 hours of training- usually completed over 4-5 training sessions. The training modules provide the driver with in-depth simulator experience against a range of realistic driving scenarios. The drive for life simulator modules provide a hands-on training environment for the novice driver to experience making real time decisions using the SPOT method. Training scenarios will challenge the driver to improve their ability to operate their vehicle safely within a range of different situations and conditions. This will include urban, rural and highway driving plus a variety of weather patterns (snow, fog, rain) and road conditions.

 

drive for life is proven to help reduce collision rates and improve skills and behaviours.  100% of participants have stated that the drive for life training made them significantly safer behind the wheel.
