FAQs
Have questions? We have answers.
Is learning this way dangerous?
This is not dangerous at all. The driving coach can make real-time changes to the vehicle's traction at any moment.
The controlled skid training begins with the student driving at a very low speed (5 - 10 mph). As the training progresses and the driver gains skill and confidence, the coach can gradually increase speed.
Does the weather have to be bad for skid training?
The beauty of the skid avoidance defensive driving course is that we can train drivers throughout the seasons on dry or wet pavement.
How much time is spent learning behind the wheel?
About one hour is spent in the classroom, with the remaining time behind the wheel. For group or family training behind the wheel, participants are in the car, with one student behind the wheel and the others observing. We rotate through each student in three-minute increments for each lesson point.
Can my teenager attend the SkidCar training on their own?
Although we think it's a great idea for parents to participate in their teen's skid avoidance and defensive driving, it is possible to drop off your teen for training after you sign a liability waiver. However, we strongly recommend that parents stay for the initial classroom portion to receive highly instructive information. Note that the teen must already have obtained his/her driver's permit in order to receive training.
