PSA: My daughter and I attended this class in Raleigh today...Well Done ! I recommend this course for any new driver, AND any parent about to give the keys to a young driver. The program is national.
This was held at (and supported by) the NC State Trooper training track south side Raleigh. The course and the track had:
Accident avoidance (rapid maneuver steering)
Maneuver braking
slalom course
dropping your tire off the road (major cause of deaths in NC)
distraction course (cell phone targeted).. and
A wet slip track for spin outs. Polished concrete course with high grade epoxy coating...and soapy water....This was a real winner.
It's hard to practice a lot of the above items, this course presents them well. The parents can do a few sections of the class and get a lot of pointers to continue to help instruct your kids. They even provided the cars !!
If they do not serve your area there are several courses like this becoming popular. A couple years back I took my son to a similar one, I preferred this one. The staff and crew are VERY PASSIONATE about this program. State Police are there in full support as well.
Take a moment to watch the videos in the link above.
Be safe out there!
