H u m a n e r r o r causes 90% of
            accidents.


Vehicle collisions are the result of

  • poor hazard awareness,
  • poor driving attitude
  • and poor technique which can
    be avoided!
Namibia Off-Road Academy
             offers

     three critical elements



Knowledge, skills and attitude.
Do you need
preventative
  training?
1. Safe, skilled drivers must be the
   top objective of any
   organization's fleet program.

3. Protective, defensive tactics,
   will keep your drivers and staff
   from becoming a statistic and
   reduce vehicle-maintenance
   costs.
The benefits?
•A high standard of driving,
•the knowledge, techniques
and attitudes for safe travel
on gravel roads,
•confidence to drive &
survive under any off-road
conditions and sealed road
driving.
Can’t afford to train your
drivers?
Poor attitudes and driving
habits will cost heavily in lives
        and property!
Consider: Frequency breeds
                severity.
  The longer improper trained drivers operate
your vehicles, the more frequent and severe the
                accidents will be
The higher your vehicle-operating costs will be
 which can also be the reason for legal claims
          running into millions of N$.

  This can harm your future development as a
              company severely.

Training with Namibia Off-Road Academy creates
            better & safe drivers.
Namibia Off-Road Academy
             is
the leading driver training
          school .
We specialize in:

 off-road, defensive and
security driving instruction


We teach only what works!
Based in Namibia, where you find
some of Africa’s most challenging
roads and driving conditions and
more than 20 years of experience
 in operating fleets and a driving
school, we are knowledgeable on
both the risks and the related safe
 alternatives to drive and survive.
Over 1,100 students annually agree:
   Namibia Off-Road Academy made them
           better & safer drivers!

          group (8 students max.)

       •Aid Organizations
       •Mining and Drilling Companies
Are you prepared to place a value on a human life or
          are you prepared to add value?
Driving on African roads is more
dangerous than driving on a tarmac road in the
             developed world.

     Conditions here can be dangerous!

 The lack of awareness towards hazards which
include rollovers and how to circumvent them,
   puts you and your drivers at serious risk.
A 4wd is not a 2wd vehicle,
 handling and dynamics are different:
 the incorrect use of an off-road vehicle
 is life threatening and increases
 vehicle maintenance cost.

• Namibia Off-Road Academy provides driving
  solutions for field workers, fleet managers,
  administrators and professional drivers in
  off-road, defensive & security driving skills.
Training saves lives and money!



         What you don’t know
