What the Defensive Driving Course Covers
Arrow's defensive driving course is built around one goal — making you a safer, more aware driver. The curriculum covers the key risk factors that lead to most accidents and collisions in Alberta, and teaches you the defensive skills to avoid them.
After completing the course, you will sit a short assessment. Pass the assessment and your certificate is issued the same day.
Who Should Take the Defensive Driving Course?
