SAFE DRIVING ADVANCED COURSE
Course duration: 2 days
It’s a complete course offering a thorough knowledge of the safe driving’s principles and the best choice for a complete and integrated approach to the driving’s dynamics.
The course takes place on the equipped proving ground and on handling circuits.
During the safe driving advanced course the following themes and exercises are dealt with:
First day:
Safe driving basic course programme
Second day:
1. Skid car: with the help of a special device reducing the wheels’ grip are simulated the car’s reactions in low grip conditions. Ready to slew round?
2. Oversteer and understeer in a bend: different drives imply opposite behaviours of the vehicle. By doing these exercises one learns to steer out of a skid, gets more feeling of the car and develops a right technique of countersteer. Exercises are carried out on appositely equipped areas both on dry and wet tar; controlling the vehicle in such conditions is not easy at all, you’ll see!
3. Skill in the reverse: only with the help of the side and rear-view mirrors, in bottlenecks that recreate the narrow ways of the built-up areas with unexpected obstacles. Nothing to do with easy parking manoeuvres.
4. Pendulum: one learns to go around a quick bend and a sharp counter bend in a controlled skid.
The learner driver will be able to manage the load shifts improving their driving feeling.
5. Hydroplaning: driving on a puddle may affect the car’s stability if not correctly controlled.
The learner driver will learn to manage safely the main danger caused by rain. Small devices which make a great difference. |
