The biggest tip for safe driving is to not drive if you feel uncomfortable on the road. If it’s raining so hard that you can barely see anything, don’t be afraid to pull over and wait for the rain to subside. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

For advanced riders who are planning on a ride that will involve hairpin corners and curves, remember to try to keep the throttle open during the corner and on descent. If approaching a hairpin corner on ascent, be sure to try to maintain the minimum speed needed to avoid a stall.

Teaching new drivers how to brake and steer will help them to react safety to situations which require quick stops including when tires blow, if animals are suddenly crossing the road or if an obstruction appears on the road.

If you haven’t ridden your motorcycle in a while, a safety refresher course is a good option. This type of course will focus on redeveloping and correcting skills, and reviewing safety information, to help a lapsed rider get on the road again.

It’s important to remember that you don’t always have to deal with the insurance rate increases that come from having one too many speeding tickets. If defensive driving is an option in your situation, our class could help you keep it off your record.

The driving test for a basic Class C license is the same for all drivers regardless of their age. However, drivers with physical or mental conditions may take a different version of the test.

Did you know that, in a motorcycle accident, only 17 percent of riders will use both brakes? Using both brakes can be the difference between getting in that accident or avoiding it, and going to a driving school will help you learn to instinctively apply both brakes.

Did you know that every new driver can benefit from driving school training? This is because driver education in high schools is often not individualized enough for teen drivers to completely understand the details of safe driving.

Most cars in the US and in many other countries are left-hand driven; the driver sits on the left side of the vehicle. Other places like the UK use right-hand-drive vehicles and therefore follow different traffic rules.

When you are driving in the rain, you should brake earlier, and less forcefully than you normally would. This increases the stopping distance between you and the car in front, and signals to the driver behind you that you’re slowing down.

Did you know that more than half of all motorcycle crashes involve riders with fewer than five months of experience? If you are just starting out with your first motorcycle, driving school is highly recommended, so that you know how to be safe on your bike.

According to the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, new riders should emulate poet Robert Frost. Frost authored the famous poem, The Road Not Taken. In that poem, a traveler has a choice of two roads and takes the path less traveled. That’s just what new motorcycle owners should do as well practice on roads where there is little traffic before hitting the interstate.

Distracted driving is a huge problem that is addressed in defensive driving courses. The number of fatalities fell by nearly 7 percent in accidents with distracted drivers in 2014. However, national figures show a slight increase in the number of injuries in those accidents, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration.

Night driving presents very different challenges than driving during the day. Without the ability to see what’s going on ahead, vision and depth perception can be significantly impaired. It’s a good idea to aim to do as much nighttime practice as you can when learning to drive.

If you’re of a certain age, you may realize that there are things you don’t do as well anymore. That’s to be expected- and it can have a big impact on your driving. A driving school can be a great place to learn the skills needed to compensate for those new challenges.
