The final level of the program is BMW Fascination Driver Training. Individuals participating in this two-day course will learn how to better command their vehicle at highway speeds and how to master a greater skill level. The two-day course will be conducted using vehicles from BMW's highly acclaimed M series and will include several track exercises.
The majority of the registrants are booking BMW Driver Training online through www.bmw.ca. And it is not just BMW owners that are signing up. BMW Driver Training is becoming increasingly popular for all drivers and as a corporate outing. The reasons for this are simple.
"A survey conducted in 2000 by DirectProtect found that 70 percent of Canadians are extremely concerned about driver safety," explains Hendrik von Kuenheim, President and CEO of BMW Canada Inc. "The BMW Driver Training program addresses the desire of Canadians to increase their safety when on the road."
A recent participant of the program explains: "With the outstanding direction of your instructors, Pierre and Robin, I learned how to react under a panic situation. Only two short days after taking my BMW Driver Training Course, I encountered almost the exact situation on the road demonstrated in the course. With my hands in the proper position and my eyes up looking for an out, I mashed on the brakes and steered around the car safely that turned directly in front of me. I can truly say, that if not for the techniques I learned that day at the BMW Driver Training school, I would have been in my first accident."
BMW has been a world leader in implementing driver training programs in over 23 countries since 1976. Every year, more than 10,000 enthusiastic motorists worldwide participate in BMW driver training programs — a carefully updated training program based on the practical analysis of accidents.
