SAFE DRIVING COURSE

The Safe Driving Course is introduced under Driver Improvement Points System (DIPS) as a ‘circuit breaker’ for motorists who are close to being liable for their first suspension under DIPS.

It aims to overcome and correct dangerous road behaviour through early corrective education and encourage positive road behavioural change.

All applicants need to attend a 4-hour 20-minutes course and attendance is compulsory.  Applicants must complete Theory training (Online) before proceeding to Practical training (Onsite).
