Orangeworks Vehicle Familiarisation course is a practical, half-day session designed for professional and fleet drivers. It ensures drivers are confident and competent in operating their assigned work vehicles – whether cars, vans, rigid trucks or articulated combinations.
Training focuses on essential driving practices based on the participant’s licence category, covering areas such as daily walk-around checks, primary and secondary controls, low-speed manoeuvres and reversing techniques. Drivers also explore eco-driving principles, hazard perception, and the challenges of operating safely alongside micro-mobility users within evolving urban road networks. This course supports safer, more efficient and responsible driving aligned with national road safety objectives.
Please Note: Exact Course Topics will be decided on and finalised by the instructor based on participant license categories and the organisation’s learning objectives.
