Course covers:
Driving a 4 Wheeled Drive vehicle effectively requires specific skills techniques that need to be learnt and practiced. Incorrect use of an off-road vehicle can increase your maintenance costs considerably and under certain road conditions be life-threatening. This course, designed by Mick Farmer, will make the difference.
This training is part of the response to our mandate to improve staff satey in Darfur. Driving vehicles, particularly 4x4s, on unsealed roads is a skill. This training is aimed at getting drivers to understand how a 4x4 works so that they can drive it safely in difficult conditions, keeping themselves and their passenger's safe.
