Defensive Driving Courses

Improve driving attitude and skill level

Bates Advanced Driving is committed to providing Defensive Driving Courses that improve the attitude and skill base of all drivers, no matter what level of experience. Our view is that road users with the correct attitude and good defensive technique, can avoid potentially hazardous situations. Our instructors also believe participants who have a better understanding of modern vehicle technology, also are able to react more effectively in an emergency situation.
