The course has three main purposes: 

1. To assist in the rehabilitation and re-education of drivers who have demonstrated unsafe driving habits. Drivers who regularly commit motor vehicle infractions pose a significant risk to public safety. The course material is designed to change these damaging attitudes by identifying them and demonstrating the faulty thinking that is typically used to justify bad driving behaviour. Attitudes of defensive drivers are explained to provide the participant with a deeper understanding of the need to change their driving behaviour.
2. To assist novice drivers or those lacking confidence to better understand the rules of the road, their vehicle and their role as a driver. Course material examples cover typical driving situations as well as extreme and emergency scenarios.
3. To ensure employees are aware of their obligations as drivers. As an employer it is of utmost importance that employees who drive for the purpose of business and in company vehicles have a full understanding of the rules of the road, the need to drive in a safe, law-abiding manner, and the importance of courteous driving.
