Register NowThe drive for life New Driver Program is for novice drivers who have received their driver's license within the past 4 years. The objective of the program is to help improve your skill level by increasing your driving experience base. You will achieve this by learning how to effectively use our proprietary SPOT technique to anticipate various driving situations: Scan, Predict, Options Available, Take Action.

The $449 (+GST) New Driver Program consists of 5 training sessions, each 1 hour in length. The training modules provide the driver with in-depth simulator experience against a range of realistic driving scenarios. The drive for life simulator modules provide a hands-on training environment for the new driver to experience making real time decisions using the SPOT method. Training scenarios will challenge the driver to improve their ability to operate their vehicle safely within a range of different situations and conditions. This will include urban, rural and highway driving plus a variety of weather patterns and road conditions.

Over the course of the 5 training sessions, new drivers will learn to effectively use SPOT in increasingly challenging environments allowing them to build their safe driving skills.
