Evasive & Defensive Driving Courses
our courses
Evasive & Defensive Driving (EDD)
In a number of fast-moving and challenging scenarios and conditions, we teach our delegates how to recognise and respond to risk and threat and provide tactical skills and techniques to help mitigate potential attacks.
Security Chauffeur Driving
The first line of defence for any leadership team member who is fortunate enough to have a chauffeur is the chauffeur.
Having a well-trained, conscientious and professional security chauffeur is, in our opinion, the best first line of defence.
BLUE MOUNTAIN GROUP INSTRUCTORS FOCUS ON PRACTICAL LESSONS WHICH PROVIDE AN OVERALL BETTER LEARNING EXPERIENCE.
Our driving courses focus on training people to do a job, enhance spatial awareness, teach the vehicle characteristics, which ultimately helps make a more focused and safer driver, rather than just pass a course. Our highly trained and qualified instructors offer real-life scenarios which focus on practical lessons which provide an overall better learning experience.
There are three key factors in being a safe driver, these being concentration, observation, and anticipation. These three key factors can be carried through all that we do in life and not only when we are behind the wheel of a vehicle.

Testimonials
The instructor has been nothing but top class from start to finish. He used his vast experience/knowledge to give a greater depth to each module that went way beyond the SIA requirements. The method of teaching ensured that we not only understood what was required of us, but that we were able to show and prove it to the instructor as well.
Daniel Griffiths
Well run course provided by experienced ex military instructors who make the course engaging, interesting and fun while imparting useful advice.
Anthony Remson
I attended the course with a view to deployment to hostile environments later on in the year, and can safely say that I have gone from knowing nothing to feeling confident and prepared to operate safely and efficiently in challenging environments. I cannot recommend BMG and their HEFAT course highly enough!
