Vehicle Familiarisation

 

For drivers, whether they are switching jobs or are brand-new to operating commercial vehicles, getting a new car or van is an exciting time. Moving to a new car or van presents additional difficulties because it frequently necessitates a considerable change in driving habits, which can be intimidating for drivers.

Our programmes are made to increase your knowledge of and comfort with your new car or van, no matter what it may be.

In particular moving from a car to driving a van is significantly different – different weight, handling, loading and blindspots to name just a few!

Our Process

How Vehicle Familiarisation Works?

 

  1. Corporate vehicle familiarisation is for employees who will be using company vehicles for work purposes. This includes learning how to operate the vehicle safely and efficiently, as well as understanding the company‘s policies and procedures regarding vehicle use.
  2. The corporate vehicle familiarisation process will typically involve a combination of classroom instruction and on–the–road training. During the classroom portion, employees will learn about the different features of the vehicle and how to use them properly. They will also be taught about the company‘s vehicle use policies and procedures.
  3. After completing the classroom portion, employees will then undergo on–the–road training where they will be able to practice driving the vehicle in a safe and controlled environment. This will allow them to get a feel for how the vehicle handles and to become more comfortable with its controls.
  4. Once the training is complete, employees will be able to take the vehicle out on the road and put their new skills to the test. With proper training and familiarisation, they will be able to safely and efficiently operate the vehicle in all types of driving conditions.
