How to become a steering master?
Poles rate their driving skills as good. The European Responsible Driving Barometer, published this year for Fondation Vinci Autoroutes pour une conduite responsable, shows that drivers in all European countries surveyed rated their driving skills as good.
Comparing these results with the number of victims per million inhabitants in countries such as Sweden (29), Germany (42) and the Netherlands (28), also participating in the study, the health of Polish drivers should be clearly worse.
Driving a car requires a combination of driving skills, knowledge of the rules and driving techniques. The highlight of your skill level is the driving test. Passing the exam allows you to enjoy the opportunity to drive a car without restrictions. But do drivers have to graduate in preparation for the exam? Definitely not.
- Currently, drivers in Poland can improve their qualifications voluntarily, and from next year, every new driver will undergo mandatory training. Within 4 to 8 months after obtaining a driver's license, drivers will have to take a road safety training course at the Voivodship Traffic Center and practical training in the field of traffic hazards at the Center for the Improvement of Driving Techniques, explains Radosław Jaskulski, ŠKODA Auto. School instructor.
Training for drivers with a driver's license is carried out by instructors in special training programs that improve skills in various aspects of driving a car. If you want to improve your skills at ŠKODA Auto Szkoła, you should pay attention to 4 main types of training:
Safe driving This is a training course for all drivers. An indispensable driver for constructing the alphabet, showing that the laws of physics are absolute. Every driver needs to know how to prepare for a trip, how to get into the right position at the wheel, how and when to turn and brake effectively. Getting into the car, you need to know that difficult situations can happen to you at any time, and the systems in the car will help us when we know how to use them.
Eco driving Knowing this modern driving style saves fuel and consumables, improves traveler safety and protects the environment. After training, it is easy to prove that it is possible to travel cheaper and just as fast, and moreover, safer and with the hope that the surrounding forests and lakes will appeal to future generations.
Defensive driving – Participants of this training improve previously acquired skills and improve already learned skills of safe driving through long-range observation of the road, planning maneuvers in advance and consistently choosing position and speed on the road.
Off-road driving This is a training for people who drive on paved roads and use 4×4 vehicles for their trips. During the training, they will learn how to drive safely on forest and mountain roads. They learn the technique and tactics of planning and moving through difficult terrain. They will also learn how to use all-wheel drive effectively and which systems will help them drive safely.
Driving a car is a skill that requires constant updating of knowledge and improvement of driving style. So let's take care of our safety and act preventively, because thanks to this we will be better road users.
