Defensive Driving
This web-based Defensive Driving Awareness program teaches you strategies for operating your automobile safely in all weather conditions, conducting vehicle check-ups, and mentally preparing for the journey.
The necessity of driving is ingrained in our daily routine, and mostly, we reach our destination without a hitch. However, a single slip-up can have life-altering consequences for us and others. With an increasingly large number of vehicles on the road and drivers under stress, it's up to each of us to prioritize safety and well-being. Our skill levels may vary based on our experience, but as driving conditions evolve, being a proficient driver demands continuous learning and practice. More than anything, we need to have the right mindset. A vigilant, proactive, safety-first attitude can enhance road travel safety for ourselves and others.

- Module 1: Understanding Defensive Driving
