Winter Driving: How About a Driving Course, for Safety’s Sake?
In certain spots across Canada, the last few weeks have been quite challenging in terms of weather. Unfortunately, when storms hit, one result is always far too many casualties on the roads.
By the way, there’s something called Christmas approaching - have you ever thought of gifting someone this kind of program? There are many of them offered across Canada, often by experienced drivers who have more than one thing to teach about how to handle a vehicle, as much on dry surfaces as on snow or ice.
I thought it was a course that, like most courses, would put a lot of emphasis on theory and safety... and not enough on practice. I recognized the need to participate since the area I live in is full of roads with sometimes dangerous conditions in the winter. I was grateful to have received this course as a gift, as I might not have thought of signing up for it, even though this type of course is of real interest to my safety and my life on the road.

If she now knows how to react in an emergency situation, then she feels safer on the road, both for herself and for others.As for our instructor Marie-Laurence, she started her school a few years ago because she felt that “learning slippery driving techniques was essential to making our roads safer.

There were some fearful participants on our day at the Sanair track and it's important for her to respect everyone's reality. “It's the perfect environment to overcome your fears,” explains Marie-Laurence Paquin.
