Van Familiarisation & Assessment

The Van Familiarisation Training is for drivers who need to become familiar with driving a large class-1 vehicle and to learn how to handle manoeuver and complete observations while in these vehicles. This session will be an opportunity for drivers to ask questions and practice low speed manoeuvring and cornering as well as being taught how to set their driving seat up correctly for maximum visibility and safety.

New to New Zealand Driver Coaching & Assessment

2 hours ·

More info We can teach drivers who are new to New Zealand, so that they are better prepared to drive on our roads, within our rules. A two hour, one on one session with an AA Driving Instructor. The first hour of the session allows the driver to familiarise themselves with NZ roads and ask questions without the pressure of being assessed. This part of the session can be conducted in an AA dual controlled car if you and the driver feel this would be beneficial. The second hour is a standard Advanced Driver assessment where we will conduct a full review of driving behaviour, attitude and capability from a health and safety perspective.

Extended Driving Assessment

1 hour, 15 mins ·

More info A 75 minute extended in-vehicle assessment with one of our qualified AA Driving Instructors is an extension of the standard in-vehicle assessment which focuses on the driver’s individual driving style, attitude and behaviour.
If you are looking for something further than what is covered during the standard in-vehicle assessment, this 75 minute extended assessment could be what you need. We can tailor the session to suit your driver’s requirements, whether manoeuvring, breaking, parking or a specific area that needs attention.
Based on their observations, the AA Driving Instructor will give the driver positive feedback and, where appropriate, provide coaching and helpful tips.
A brief written summary on the session will be provided to the organisation. If the AA Driving Instructor thinks more time is needed to correct poor driving, they may recommend additional training or coaching.
