Towing Training

Whether you’re a franchise owner or manage a fleet of operators, safe towing can be an invaluable skill in ensuring your safety and the safety of those around you. Driving with a trailer is not a simple task; changes in vehicle length and width, shifts in centre of gravity and vehicle instability can all be serious issues to unfamiliar drivers and can lead to injury or even loss of life.

Our team of knowledgeable and experienced trainers will help you become familiar with the intricacies of towing, as well as build your confidence as you tackle previously alien concepts. Utilising the latest in theoretical and practical training techniques, drivers will learn valuable skills and knowledge, including:

  • Vehicle loading and weight distribution
  • Connectors and their uses
  • Matching the right trailer to the right vehicle
  • Manoeuvring and reversing
  • Safety procedures
  • Pre-trip checks

By bringing their own trailer, students will also have the opportunity to directly apply the skills and knowledge they have learned in class. They will also be able to ask our team of friendly and experienced trainers for assistance and become more familiar with their own vehicle.
