The areas that will be covered are terrorist operations & surveillance detection; consisting of past terrorist/criminal attacks, lessons learned, route analysis and surveillance detection. Security driver training is designed to improve the car control skills of licensed drivers at any experience level. The student learns about vehicle dynamics and the importance of understanding “vehicle language.” This is accomplished through realistic exercises such as straight-line emergency braking, braking-in-turns, serpentine, skid pad, swerve-to-avoid, and off-road recoveries. The student will also learn about the use of focusing your eyes on where you want the vehicle to go.
