Newsletter: December 2003

Dear Reader,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Just letting you know our web site has been updated with new driving news and articles. Listed below are just a few of the new updates available online. It has been a busy few months as we developed our new 20 acre site and prepared for the opening.

Also, I am posting more information about the road safety initiative that is taking place next year through the international support of the WHO /UN. This has been an important issue for me living in Uganda, as fatalities due to poor driving standards are a daily occurrence.

:: Filed under 4wd Newsletters.

New 20 Acre Off-Road Facility: In the second half of this year (2003) OnCourse developed a new training centre 5 km off the Entebbe road at the Kitende turn off. The driving facility has been designed to mirror hazards /obstacles from this region in a compendious method; optimising practice time and ensuring effective confidence building.
Road Safety is No Accident (information by WHO): Although road traffic collisions kill more than 1.2 million people around the world every year, they are largely neglected as a health issue, perhaps because they are still viewed by many as events which are beyond our control. Yet the risks are known.
Latest Training Schedule: We have a few 4wd courses running over the next 3 months, which still have spaces available. Some are paying slots and others are for former students who may attend free as a refresher. Please email us, to book either for yourself or your drivers. Dates have been removed for the online newsletter - contact us for our latest schedule.
