The Winters in the UK are now so unpredictable and coming earlier and earlier it is even more imperative that you get some Winter driver training in with Drive-Tech Limited at Castle Combe.   

The skid pan is the perfect environment to learn how to control your car in icy wintry conditions on our specially prepared 'wet pan' we mimic the conditions you might come across out on the road.     We supply the vehicles which are front and rear wheel drive to enable you to experience both types of vehicle handling, together with both ABS and cadence braking exercises.     All you need is a full driving licence to take part.

Our courses are run mostly at weekends, but also every 1st and 3rd Friday.  You can either book onto a specific date or have an open-dated gift voucher which is valid for 18 months.    The course is suitable for young drivers as well as more experience drivers.    The course is just £95 for the standard, but if you would like to learn just that little bit more in a smaller group you might like to perhaps take part in one of our Intensive Courses.

The Daily Mail article today details the early prediction made by the Met Office saying it might be as early as October - and we all thought that last year's November snow falls were early enough!    Don't forget it might not even be the snow and ice that catches us out, even heavy rain can cause slippery surfaces on roads.

Make sure you don't get caught out this Winter and book onto a skid pan course - for more information call our expert team on 01249 783010.
