For most of us, driving is the most dangerous thing that we do! And driving whilst at work has been proved to be in the highest risk category.
Staff who work in a car dealership can be exposed to even more risks than the average 'at work driver'. DriverSkills can provide specialised training to help to minimise these risks for both sales and after sales staff.
Your Sales Executives are at risk!
Sales executives put themselves at risk each time they accompany a customer on a test drive. We are not of course for one minute suggesting that all your customers are dangerous drivers! It's just the obvious fact that the customer is in a strange car, probably on a road that he/she doesn't know and their mind is more focused on the purchase decision than the driving. It's important that the sales executive is always fully aware of this situation and stays alert and in control in the vehicle.
Sales Executive on Road Training Sessions
Our Instructors can help your sales team to become more aware of potential dangers when out with customers on test drives. Participants will be shown how it's possible to be more aware of potential dangers and how to be more in control in the vehicle, without spoiling the drive experience for the customer.
We find that a one hour session with each sales person out on your driving route represents a cost effective solution to reducing your sales executives' exposure to on road risk.
Dealership Test Drive Route Audit
Our instructor can audit your drive routes, highlighting any danger areas and suggest changes if appropriate.
Technicians
Technicians who are on test are another category of the workforce who can be exposed to a high level of on road risk. Whilst out on test it's all too easy to forget about road safety and concentrate too much on the vehicle fault that they are checking for. Participants will learn advanced driving techniques to minimise this risk.
