According to accident statistics, drivers of Benz cars get involved in fewer road accidents compared to the drivers of other car brands. This is due to Mercedes-Benz safety philosophy. The statistics prove that the car manufacturer is serious in providing peace of mind to their loyal customers. In line with this thrust, the company is sponsoring driving safety training events all over Germany. These events are made to foster awareness of typical danger situations and to know how to respond.
According to Ulrich Mellinghoff, Head of Mercedes Safety Development, getting in the training is quite affordable, the half-day compact training event is priced at €89. They also made it available in twelve venues and four off-road locations so that participants do not need to travel far to learn driving techniques.
The training is set to target people from different expertise, from learner drivers, professionals and chauffeurs. The only requirement is a class 3/class B driver’s license. There’s no need to bring a car as the company will provide the training vehicles. This poses several advantage according Wolfgang Müller, Chief Instructor Mercedes-Benz Driving Events, the student “don’t need to worry about tire wear” and “their instructors know the cars intimately.” Car models to be used ranges from A-Class to S-Class and some Mercedes-Benz SUV and off-roaders.
