What is an Advanced Driving?
Advanced driving gives you the ability to control the position and speed of your vehicle safely, systematically, and smoothly, using road and traffic conditions to make level-headed progress unobtrusively, with skill and responsibility.
This skill requires a positive but courteous attitude and a high standard of driving competence co-coordinated with excellent handling skills.
The vehicle will always be at the right place on the road at the right time, traveling at the right speed with the correct gear engaged, and can always be stopped safely in the distance that can be seen to be clear.
