Advanced driving is about improving driver safety and education. Advanced drivers use a way of driving called The System which is derived from the Police Roadcraft system of car control.
|
An advanced drive will be smooth, as well as safe and systematic. Nothing the driver does will look or feel rushed or hurried, resulting in an economical drive.
Advanced drivers use their skill and awareness to decide whether they should make good progress or impose their own restraints, especially with regard to speed.
Advanced driving is about confident application and competence in all aspects of driving. The vehicle is always in the right place on the road, travelling at the right speed, in the right gear, and the driver is ready to negotiate whatever situation may arise.
