Class 4 Driver Training
Develop safe habits for passenger transportation
Training overview
Passenger transportation calls for more than getting from one place to another. Class 4 training at NEW ERA DRIVING SCHOOL LTD. focuses on smooth vehicle control, careful observation and an awareness of passenger needs. We discuss your intended work and licence category before recommending a training scope.
