The purpose of this course is to provide familiarisation for learner drivers when faced with Emergency Vehicles & Personnel. From pulling out of the way to allow emergency vehicles to pass, to the act of being pulled over, the interaction and RBT processes. Learners will be briefed in a short classroom environment before heading out on to the Queensland Raceway Circuit for the driving activities. This opportunity allows learners to become confident in their actions when faced with flashing lights and sirens; as well as what to expect when interacting with emergency staff.
Five groups of 40 learners (and their supervisor) will each have an hour for their experience.
Starting with a short classroom style briefing, police will advise of the “Do” and “Do Nots” of Emergency Vehicle interactions, and provide information for the on-track proceedings.
Learners will then take their own vehicles, with their supervisors alongside and head on track. Police will activate lights and sirens, simulating that the Learner needs to move out of the way as the Emergency Vehicle is enroute to a job.
From here, police will filter through the cars and pull every driver over intermittently, showing them safe procedures, and what to expect when being pulled over.
There are 5 groups. Group 1 begins at 5pm and they run hourly until Group 5 begins at 9pm.
Registration opens 1 hour prior to your session.
