Introductory Skid Control

Introductory Skid Control
£115.00

Most drivers think they could easily cope with any situation on the road that includes a skid. However, the truth is not quite as certain. There are many different types of skid a vehicle is able to get into and each one requires a different kind of skill to get out of the situation. This course has been specifically designed to teach you the best way to avoid a skid, and how to cope with one should the situation arise.

 

  • Welcome and safety briefing
  • Instructors demonstration
  • Driving time on the skid pan
  • Experience gift pack including smart wallet and personalised voucher
  • Personal Accident Insurance to the value of £50,000 together with cancellation indemnity

The course starts with a talk explaining the format and safety of the session. The causes, types of skid and cures are all discussed – together with cadence braking and observation. The instructors will then take you on the skid pan and follow through the briefing by demonstrating the relevant points. Course members then take the wheel in turn and carry out exercises under the guidance of the instructor. These exercises are made progressively more difficult as the session proceeds. You will undoubtedly be a much safer driver after this course ends.
