2024 was an exciting year for SambaSafety. We expanded our online fleet training offerings with new, region-specific courses designed to enhance driver safety and compliance across the globe. Below, we provide a quick overview of the training content introduced this past year, with courses tailored for the UK, as well as new French-Canadian and Spanish content.
UK Training Content
Our UK 'Pro-Defence' Catalog introduces a comprehensive suite of defensive driving training designed specifically for all UK vehicle types, including heavy goods vehicles (HGV1 and HGV2), light duty vehicles (LDV) and cars. Defensive driving training equips drivers with the skills needed to anticipate and mitigate potential road hazards, reducing the risk of crashes and other costly incidents. These new courses have been meticulously crafted to address the unique challenges of UK roads, with UK-specific narration, visuals of vehicles, roadways and signage, as well as considerations for localized government regulations.
The fundamental defensive driving topics covered include:
- Distractions
- Effective communication
- Fatigue management
- Evaluating space
- Navigating hazards
- Controlled speed
- Essential planning
- An approach to safe driving
In addition, we launched a series of UK Micro-Learning Modules for all vehicle types (HGV1, HGV2, LDV, car) that can be used as post-incident reminders or ongoing skill reinforcement. These short, targeted lessons provide drivers with quick refreshers on specific topics such as mobile phone use, stop signs and traffic control devices, smoking, rear-end collisions, following distance, slippery roads, animal collisions and much more.
