The Time Has Come! VDI Transitions Training Fleet to Dodge Chargers

Vehicle Dynamics — Thu, 03 Jan 2019 23:09:56 +0000

Since VDI was founded in 2003, we have adhered to a very simple philosophy – provide students the highest value training opportunities possible. And we measure that value just as our predecessor, the Scotti School, did more than four decades ago - by how applicable our training is to each and every one our student’s everyday role and responsibilities. As forty plus years of driver training experience has shown, providing that value means evolving with both the times and automotive technology; for our students an added value of this evolution has always been more opportunities to succeed when and where it counts the most – out on the streets, where they earn their living managing the safety and security risks of those whom they are responsible for.

In many instances, driving at night is not out of the ordinary and in some cases, depending upon the Principal's schedule, preferences or proclivities, is the norm. And while fatigue is always a concern when it comes to driving at night, there are other risks that the driver must consider and account for. In fact, while a combination of safety and security risks tends to make vehicle movements the highest risk endeavor a Principal and his or her protectors will engage in on any given day, movements which take place at night may present even greater risks than those which take place during daylight hours.

This week the VDI team delivered our first open enrollment course of 2015 – our 6th training delivery for the year so far – in much the same way we wrapped up our last open enrollment program of the year in 2014 – in the snow! Those who have been through one of our programs […]

Tradition

I (Tony Scotti) hesitate to post these types of comments – simply because there are so many and I would be posting them every day. But this one is, at least to this old man, special. It is from a former student, his name is Bob and he is 87 years old. He read an […]
