Learning how to drive for a 17 or 18-year-old person is a ticket to freedom. In some countries like the USA the minimum legal age to acquire a drivers license is just 15 years of age. The excitement in obtaining a legal driving license to a youth is in a way no less than winning a holiday to Las Vegas. Sure, learning how to drive is a fun thing for the youth as well as for those of other ages. Driving Schools In Romford emphases that along with the excitement and fun factor there is this ironic and very serious factor of trying to save human lives in potential life and death situations.
The figure for annual fatalities from car accidents is in the four-figure mark in most European countries. By contrast, the USA has a five-figure annual fatality record. When this figure is adjusted for accidents per thousand people the figure is still about 300% higher than most European countries. Another factor worth considering that the USA has a 55MPH or 89 Kmh speed limit. In contrast, Germany has no speed limit on the autobahns as well as very high-speed limits being applicable to most European highways. There was a young school going boy who jumped a red light on a bicycle in the USA. The policeman stopped the kid and asked for an explanation. The kid replied to the baffled policeman that he should read the law books, for the stop and go signals only apply to motorised traffic. How do European countries have far fewer fatalities? The answer perhaps lies in the fact that the driving schools teach better high-speed driving skills. European cars are better adapted for high speed driving with factors like the cars having unbelievable short distances to a stop during hard ABS braking from a high speed, The passenger cabins are designed to keep the occupants safe in the case of a high-speed impact as well as having efficient airbags. Quite a few cars have self-leveling suspension as well as more safety features. Driving Schools In Romford teach the students how to respond in unusual emergency situations.
For example, a skid condition in a car is sometimes experienced. This could be due to a car skidding on a wet rainy road, an accidental oil slick on the road, A person taking severe corrective action to avoid a texting driver resulting in an uncontrollable skid are a few examples. Schools of repute teach students on a clear tarmac field with no walls or traffic in simulated skid conditions in how to control a car during a skid. That is quite likely that the confidence imparted to a student would one day save human lives in an emergency. Most student drivers go through 30 to 40 hours of dual driving lessons before they could be considered fit enough to qualify for a driving test. The time span is usually two and a half to three months. Most driving schools offer intensive driving courses. Such courses are not recommended, having an extremely high failure rate. Driving schools do that because most others offer such and a driving school would be considered of a low standard if that did not offer such a course.
