  • Defensive Driver Training

    Road safety is always a hot topic in the news, particularly in relation to the training of young drivers. Driver Dynamics is Victoria's most experienced driver training school and this summer they are taking their expertise on the road to embark on the largest driver training campaign ever undertaken in the country!

    Over the summer months, the Driver Dynamics team are offering a comprehensive defensive driver training course for only $99 (normally $280), plus the courses will be available in 11 key regional cities around Victoria - putting them within 200km of EVERY driver in Victoria. As well as Melbourne, the team will visit Sale, Wangaratta, Shepparton, Echuca, Geelong, Colac, Warrnambool, Bendigo, Ballarat, Stawell and Mildura!

    The Summer Safe Driving Program is aimed primarily at young drivers and covers some basic theory about vehicle dynamics and car control, as well as practical exercises that include a 60km/h wet stop and an emergency swerve and recover manoeuvre.


    Kevin Flynn, Driver Dynamics senior instructor says "most drivers are not aware of how to handle or avoid an emergency situation until they find themselves in one - and by then it is too late. These courses introduce some key concepts of emergency avoidance and are recommended for all drivers".


    The courses run in Melbourne during December 2010 and head off around the state in January 2011. For event dates and locations, please visit www.summersafedriving.com.au for more information.
