What it is

Driving Refreshed

We all fall into bad habits when driving and most of us lean on experience to inform how we behave on the roads.

Our driver training gives the opportunity to reassess your current style of driving and identify techniques and skills ripe for improvement.

There are some skills that most drivers have simply never been taught, such as motorway driving and overtaking. We can guide you through these manoeuvres and give you practical tips and processes to use every day.

This course will plug the gaps in your knowledge, refresh your memory on the basics and give you a new approach to driving that is more considered, deliberate and less stressful.

  • No more autopilot, we'll make you rethink how you look down the road and what you see.
  • The next move should be obvious if you've understood your surroundings - we'll help you build a constantly evolving driving plan.
  • When you've got a plan and a framework to lean on, stress levels diminish and mistakes can be dealt with calmly.
  • If you've never had any motorway training, we can address that and put you at ease with the creation of a 'safety bubble' to use on motorways.
  • Similarly, few drivers are ever taught how to overtake - be that a cyclist, tractor or slow moving car. There's a technique - we'll show you how.

This course can be tailored to your needs, so if you want it to be an introduction to Police Roadcraft, we can deliver it in that manner or if it's a confidence boost you need then we can focus on areas of driving that really worry you.

Talk to us today and we can craft a day to your needs.

Matthew was an amazing coach. My son thoroughly enjoyed himself and learned extremely relevant skills. He found Matthew reassuringly encouraging, enabling him to make choices whilst enabling development at pace. From the feedback my son gave me and seeing how his driving has improved significantly, I can only recommend this training wholeheartedly. A huge thanks to Matthew for his time and coaching!

Absolutely - motorways, parking, overtaking - just talk to us.

Yes, that's the basis of everything we teach. It's not 'blues and twos', but the technique that lies beneath that. Calmly reading the situation and making a plan at whatever speed.
