What is Driver Awareness?

The psychological approach to driving.
Learn to think outside the box.

Ideal for Corporate & Fleet Drivers, Schools, Sixth Form Colleges, Universities and Academies.

We offer Driver Psychology Courses based on Police VIP driving attitudes and techniques, devised by a former British Police VIP Driving Instructor with over 25 years’ experience.

Please be wary about other companies using the heading, 'Driver Awareness' (There are hundreds of them). We are a British and global company, Driver Awareness Ltd with the domain name, driverawareness.com. Be sure to get the real thing and beware of imitations. We do not say, "We are right and others are wrong"; we stimulate the mind to question, "How to Do - and why?" and NOT "What to Do."

Driver Awareness Ltd. takes the view that repetitive ‘drills’ testing and instructing, in relation to driving for qualified drivers, are policies of the past and are mostly ineffective and unproductive.

We educate drivers to drive appropriately, giving them the skills needed to take control of the situation. We believe that tools and techniques that take control away from the driver like automatic 'speed control' devices are a crutch and not a long term solution.

We go right to the heart of driver psychology in a scientific way.

Driver Awareness is VIP protection for everyday drivers. After all, there’s no greater VIP than yourself!

Our advice is to keep you safe, save on fuel costs, vehicle wear and tear and reduce pollution.

The provision by Driver Awareness Ltd of both our course and the book, 'Mind How You Go' creates part of the auditable trail for the purposes of corporate responsibility and governance under Corporate Manslaughter Legislation.

What is the difference between Driver Awareness Limited and 'Advanced' or 'Defensive' Driving Schools? Driver Awareness Ltd. is not a driving school and is not for learner drivers. It concentrates on the psychological rather than the physical. Its uniqueness is that it is based on Police V.I.P. Protection Driving Techniques, adapted for use by the everyday motorist.

It doesn't matter what kind of a vehicle you are driving; driver thinking and attitudes are the same for everyone.

Organisations teaching 'advanced' or even 'defensive' driving have been around for many years and have therefore been part of so-called 'Road Safety' schemes in which almost 9 people have been killed, and approximately 120 people seriously injured, every single day on British roads! These are appalling statistics from which Driver Awareness Ltd. completely disassociates itself.

We educate drivers (making them aware) by passing on information that changes attitudes. We believe that, if you sort out mental skills, the physical ones will generally look after themselves.....and it works!

The Government has stated that all drivers should be psychologically tested and trained but they don't have the full and proper knowledge or experience to put this recommendation into action.

We do have these skills and, as we are not under any political influence, we're free to discuss driving matters without fear of financial pressures.
