Tune yourself up with a refresher course

You probably wouldn’t think twice about taking a course to learn something new for your job or to hone your skills at something like golf. There’s always room for improvement in your driving skills too. Over the years, driving techniques change. Laws change. Cars change. We change.
Ask yourself these questions to determine if you could benefit from a driver’s refresher course:
Did you acquire your licence in a location with different driving conditions than where you now live?
Driving conditions are very different between urban and rural areas. Professional instruction can help ensure you’re prepared to handle the conditions and situations most common to the type of driving you do.
Did you learn to drive in a different country?
Basic traffic laws can be quite different from country to country. Plus, things like rights of way, traffic management, parking guidelines, and drivers’ attitudes can be very different too. A course may help you feel more familiar with some of the fine points of driving in Canada.
Have you purchased a car with new or upgraded features
Does your car have front wheel, rear wheel, four-wheel, or all-wheel drive? An anti-lock braking system? Electronic stability control? Automatic traction control? These features can all help reduce injuries and save lives — but only if you know how to use them properly. A professional driving instructor can help you make the most of the safety features built into today’s cars.
Do you find yourself feeling tense or nervous in the car?
Driving on busy highways or in adverse weather conditions (such as heavy rain, snow, wind or fog) can make even the best drivers nervous. A few lessons are probably all it will take to help you feel secure in the knowledge that you can handle your vehicle safely in any situation.
Have you recently been in a car accident?
A crash can shake your confidence and rattle your nerves – whether you were at fault or not. A special course in collision avoidance and road-risk management may be all that’s needed to put you back in the driver’s seat with confidence.
