You can’t always trust that other drivers on the road are going to drive responsibly. But you can always be proactive. That’s why we focus on teaching our students proper defensive driving for a variety of situations, from the GTA’s busy streets to Canada’s cross-country highways.
As part of the classroom theory portion of our Defensive Driver Training Courses, you will learn the essential components of defensive driving. Here is a very brief overview of the topics we’ll cover as we prepare you to be a responsible and proactive driver now and in the future.
We’ll start by going over an introduction to the basics with you. This portion covers topics such as common misconceptions of driving in the GTA, the first steps of driving, the types of everyday traffic situations you may encounter, and more.
This portion of the course will use short video presentations and practical information to teach students some of the necessary knowledge for driving on a daily basis, including the following components:
Learning to recognize the shapes, colours, and meanings of road signs, as well as the consequences they may face for ignoring them.
Students learn to recognize what different line styles and colours mean and how to safely abide by them, such as white dotted lines or yellow solid lines.
Our curriculum will teach students to obey different traffic controls, such as avoiding hazards, for safe and responsible driving.
This important component teaches students about the potential life-saving safety devices and how to use them effectively, such as seatbelts, airbags, and child car seats.
We’ll walk students through learning the Smith System, which is the Ontario industry standard for defensive driving and follows the “Five Keys to Space Cushion Driving.” The system includes guidelines and requirements for safe driving practices and driving visibility, such as the proper amount of space between vehicles as well as safely recognizing and avoiding hazards.
Like we said before, driving is a privilege that comes with great responsibility. Therefore, we know how important it is to teach our driving students how to have better driving attitudes and avoid peer pressure or influenced situations that could be a risk to their safety.
Once the students have gained the proper knowledge in learning how to be a more defensive driver, we’ll go over the components that they’ll need to know in order to succeed with the Ontario G2 road test, such as the tasks and maneuvers they’ll need to perform to pass. It’s our goal to make sure every single student is confident and ready to take the test once they leave our program.
We provide a professional service that aims to give you the confidence to pass your test safely on the road within a short span of time.
