What's a life worth? Take a day out - it may save yours or someone else's

What is a life worth?   Can you save your own life?   Can you save another's life?


Simply, the answer is YES.... read on if you want to find out how. Our roads are an ever changing scene, our vehicles continually updated, but do we update ourselves, does our experience match those changes? Have we up-skilled our driving techniques to accommodate new technologies, new road conditions and perhaps our own changes in driving ability both physically and mentally?
Here is a way to come to grips with those questions aimed at the learner probationary driver and those who are still new to driving.

WARNING: Some Images below are graphic. Viewer discretion is advised

I fully support anything which will reduce the horrendous carnage on our roads. I will not mince words here, every driver has a responsibility to update their skills and knowledge.
If you think you know it all, you are a fool and a dangerous one at that. Consider being part of this opportunity, you owe it to yourself, your family and the community. Consider the consequences if you become a statistic.
Do you want to be a statistic?

Defensive Driver Training - A Full Day Course, hosted by SKIDZ Driver Training who are fully accredited by VicRoads to conduct these sessions is a great way to update your skills, come to grips with new technologies, and learn more about our own ability both physical and mental when behind the wheel of a vehicle.

Nobody knows it all, all of us can learn more about driving, All of us have a responsibility to be safer drivers on the road. This course could save your life, it could save someone else's, you owe it to yourself and the community to be safer on the road.
