Course Description
The Roadside Safety Awareness for Learner Drivers course is designed to equip new drivers with essential knowledge and skills to ensure their safety while driving and handling roadside emergencies. This non-accredited course focuses on raising awareness of potential hazards and risks that learner drivers may encounter on the road. It provides practical guidance on how to respond to various situations such as breakdowns, flat tires, or accidents, ensuring that drivers know how to protect themselves and others in high-risk environments.
Throughout the course, participants will learn about safe roadside behaviour, including the proper use of hazard lights, selecting a safe location to pull over, and calling for assistance when needed. The course also covers essential vehicle maintenance checks, such as tire pressure and fluid levels, to help drivers minimise the likelihood of roadside incidents. Emphasising situational awareness, the training helps learners identify and avoid potential dangers, such as busy highways, poor weather conditions, and low visibility areas.
This course is ideal for learner drivers and their supervisors who want to develop a strong foundation in roadside safety and emergency preparedness. It provides learners with confidence not only in handling their vehicle but also in making informed, safe decisions when faced with unexpected road conditions. By gaining these critical skills early, learners can reduce the risk of accidents and increase their overall safety on the road.
Although non-accredited, this course offers valuable insights into road safety and complements formal driver education. It is an excellent resource for new drivers looking to enhance their practical driving skills and road safety awareness, laying the groundwork for responsible driving practices.
