Let's face it, with our weather, the UK presents more than its fair share of challenging road conditions. Which is why this all new comprehensive Skid Control course in County Durham will help you get equipped to whatever situations arise to you whilst driving to ensure you can navigate these safely. Under the guidance of a qualified ARDS tutor, you'll be driving a manual control car that's been customised to simulate low grip driving circumstances over the course of an hour long session, which will focus on increasing your reaction time in adverse conditions, thus hopefully increasing your future confidence behind the wheel whatever the weather!
