COST
We ask for a small donation of $500.00 for the five module course to assist administrative costs of the NGO.
AUDIENCE
This course is geared toward drivers who have traffic-related matters and those who have been disqualified from driving due to an accumulation of Demerit Points. Novice drivers as well as experienced drivers and most especially, repeat offenders may benefit from this course which encourages safe driving behaviour.
OBJECTIVES
The entire course is designed to encourage traffic offenders to take responsibility for their actions as drivers and change their attitude and behaviour towards safe road practices. The course also seeks to highlight to drivers the rights of other road users, especially pedestrians, bicyclists and motorcyclists. The course will emphasise the need for drivers to make choices that minimises risks for all road users.
The key principles underlying all the modules of this course are:
- Awareness of dangerous conduct on roads and the consequences of those actions
