You must understand that you are in charge of operating that vehicle safely when you get behind the wheel. It is a big responsibility, so that’s why it is paramount you ace your driving test and enhance your skills and performance. You must be aware of others on the road to avoid collision or road rage, or any other problems that might occur. At LTrent, you can be offered a driver’s assessment to see where your weaknesses are.

What is a Driver’s Assessment?

A driver’s assessment helps the instructor diagnose your vehicle handling ability, as well as identifying the risk level with new individuals, or those with differently-abled conditions.  These assessments are developed by university research and aid in offering more resources for those experiencing issues while driving.

How It Works

If you have a condition that may impair your driving, you first seek an evaluation with your doctor. They will use tools to monitor your cognitive abilities and then see if there can be accommodations made before taking any road lessons.

Then, the on-road assessment will be supervised by a certified instructor in a dual controlled vehicle. While driving, they will pay attention to your:

• Behavioural skills
• Time Perception
• Attention to the road
• Audio/visual perception
• Reaction Time
• Distance and speed management

Upon finishing that test, you will be given a grade and recommendations about your ability to drive. This could include special eyeglasses, cars with special mirroring, or even things like avoiding driving large vehicles, i.e. busses or trucks.

Some Safety Tips from LTrent

• Always wear your seatbelt – seatbelts help minimize damage in cases of car accidents. Although a very common rule, many people often forget how important seatbelts are.
• No phones out – phones are a distraction to your eyes, ears, and attention that can lead to increased unsafe driving and crashes. Your eyes should be on the road as much as possible, for a split second can become a life or death situation.
