DEFENSIVE SKILLS DAY

Develop potentially life-saving skills during this fun, memorable 3-hour program

ABOUT THIS COURSE

Defensive Skills Day is a 3-hour program on a driving range that offers new drivers the opportunity to learn skills to help them when they encounter challenging situations on the road. Highlights of the class include learning how to control a car during a skid and how to maneuver precisely in unexpected situations. Our instructors guide students through the various courses to increase skill and comfort levels. Through repetition and expert tips, we prepare students for life-long safe driving. Defensive Skills Day takes place primarily in the family vehicle, except for the skidding exercise which takes place in DriveSafe vehicles. Defensive Skills Day can be purchased separately or as part of Drivers Education and Behind-the-Wheel Programs.

Allison, Westminster
The instructors today were awesome and very supportive in everything they did with us.
Jodi, Denver
I loved the skidding and the driving backwards. It was also really fun to do the obstacle course.
Ben, Arvada
My instructors did well, I would definitely want to come back and do this again.
Elizabeth, Wheat Ridge
I thought all the instructors did a very good job throughout the course of the day. They were all very informative, explained everything well, and I learned a lot at each station. My favorite part of the class was the skid course and the obstacle course, because both were really fun as well as good to know/use for the future.
Lisa A, Highlands Ranch
Excellent customer service over the phone!!!
Ken, Highlands Ranch
I enjoyed the obstacle course because it involved many different skills…
Parent, Highlands Ranch
My daughter attended the Defensive Skills Day and it went well. I got to ride with her at the end when I returned, and I have to admit, I was very shocked at how much she improved! She drove me through the timed obstacle course and her skill level blew me away. She said she has much more confidence in driving now. This course is very well worth the money and I highly recommend it to all parents.
Brittany, Evergreen
I liked that the instructors gave positive feedback and also their little tips and tricks.
