What the CPC course covers

Road Sense: Mastering Hazard Perception combines research-led theory with practical, interactive learning to help drivers recognise risks earlier and make safer decisions.

Module 1

Hazard perception and prediction

Drivers explore how hazard perception relates to collision risk and why it is a critical skill for professional drivers. Through validated hazard clips and interactive activities, drivers learn how to recognise developing hazards and respond earlier.

Module 2

Risk calibration and decision-making

The course examines why drivers take risks and how these behaviours can be changed. Drivers explore attitudes, habits, decision-making and risk calibration through discussion and practical exercises.

Behaviour change tool

Practical tools for safer driving

Drivers develop personalised behavioural contracts that provide clear strategies for managing risk. These plans help drivers apply what they have learned in real-world driving situations.

Safer drivers. Better decisions.

Training designed to create lasting behavioural change

Road Sense: Mastering Hazard Perception goes beyond compliance training. The course is designed to help drivers better understand risk, improve hazard awareness, and apply safer decision-making strategies in real driving situations.

Through interactive learning, realistic scenarios, and behavioural insight, the course supports drivers in developing habits that contribute to safer, lower-risk fleets.
