Defensive Driving for Work Drivers

Most collisions involving work drivers aren’t about handling the vehicle. They come from following too closely, seeing a hazard too late, rushing and fatigue. This course is for anyone who drives for work, all year round: the habits that give you time and space to react when someone else makes a mistake.

You also get a printable driver vehicle check log and a driving near-miss report.

• Scanning ahead, beside and behind, with an intersection hazard exercise
• Following distance, with a stopping-distance tool
• Intersections, merging, passing and backing
• Alberta’s slow down, move over rule and sharing the road
• Fatigue, impairment and deciding not to drive
• The circle check and trip planning

Online courses are one part of operator training. They don't replace site-specific training, a hands-on practical evaluation or your employer's authorization, and a certificate of completion isn't a licence or proof of competency. See our training disclaimer.
