BUILDING POSITIVE VIBES
Driving Pro Tip
Advanced driving is a methodical, safe & practical way of driving.
​
An advanced driver is in constant awareness of their environment. They are aware of immediate surrounding possibilities and possibilities of approaching vehicles – albeit ahead or behind them.
This system creates self awareness of plan, procedure and execution, thus being highly effective at dealing with circumstances before they arise.
ADVANCED CAR CONTROL IS AN ACCUMULATION OF AWARENESS

​
Driving smoothly without being aggressive or cutting other drivers off, is key!
​
An accomplished driver sails along the roads graciously, without the need to brake or be the cause for others to brake.
​
With Responsibility & Observation, comes Acquired Skill.
