It
is the Organization’s duty of care to provide
staff with adequate training to enable them to
perform their expected duties safely. Staff working
in remote locations may be required to drive four-wheel
drive vehicles as part of their employment. Therefore
all drivers working in these remote locations
are requested, as part of their induction, to
successfully complete a four-wheel drive training
course prior to starting in their new position.
A 4WD is not a sports car. It has different handling
characteristics than a conventional car. Some
people have bad driving habits and these, coupled
with certain situation off road, can lead to vehicle
damage and/or injury to the occupants.
Rajasthan Four Wheel Drive Pvt. Ltd. utilizes
researched road safety information to provide
drivers with education in risk assessment techniques,
low risk defensive driving exercises and safe
practical off-road four-wheel drive experiences.
The course combines a balance of facilitated theory
sessions combined with substantial on-road and
off-road driving experiences that reinforces the
risks associated with driving. It provides valuable
education on hazard recognition methods and practical
driving skills both on and off-road, to improve
and encourage safe driving habits. The safe use
of four wheel drive recovery equipment and associated
four wheel driving techniques, together with basic
maintenance and fault finding, equips participants
to safely drive and recover a four wheel drive
vehicle in the on and off-road environment.
