Why This Course Exists

Bridge strikes and VRU incidents are still among the fastest ways to turn a normal shift into a reportable incident, downtime, and uncomfortable questions from insurers or operators. In most cases, the root cause isn’t bad luck — it’s planning failures, awareness gaps, time pressure, or complacency.

Accident Prevention: Bridge Strikes, VRUs & Road Risk Awareness is built to reduce those risks with practical, driver-focused training delivered live online.

Built for drivers who take their licence seriously — and operators who expect more than minimum compliance.
Not for every driver.

What You’ll Cover

Bridge strike prevention: height awareness, route planning, signage interpretation, and last-minute decision traps.
VRU risk awareness: why vulnerable road users are most at risk, and how to reduce exposure in real traffic conditions.
Road risk awareness: fatigue, distraction, time pressure, and the small lapses that lead to big incidents.
Defensive driving standards: hazard perception, anticipation, and professionalism behind the wheel.

Who Should Attend?

HGV (LGV) & PCV drivers
