Did you know that many road accidents happen after late summer into early autumn when dry roads experience heavy rain, the first frosts and snowfalls of the season? Knowing how to drive in slippery and freezing conditions is serious stuff but learning how to control your car can be great fun too. 
Specialist event organisers prepare tracks with water and non-toxic agents to simulate wet and icy road conditions making it the ideal place to test your handling skills. Drivers can experience what a skid feels like and then adapt to stay in complete control of the vehicle.
Hands-On
A hands-on course with professional driving instructors can show you the techniques of how to control skills in both front and rear wheel drive cars, experience braking exercises in vehicles fitted with and without ABS, a trial run is a perfect way to put your new skills into practice while the course is also structured to cover 4×4 skid controls and cadence braking exercises. Driving experts will teach you all you need to know about defensive driving techniques during skid pan training. You can also benefit from and be briefed on the following:-
- Oversteer and understeer, what it feels like and how to apply corrective action
- Types of cars likely to oversteer and understeer
- Drivers’ actions that are likely to affect oversteer and understeer
In addition drivers will practice and learn during a skid pan training course:-
