Driving in Africa is inherently dangerous. The accident rate is far higher than in Europe or America, despite far less vehicles on the road as a percentage of the population. This is due to a number of factors such as poor or no initial driver training; poorly maintained infrastructure and poorly maintained vehicles.
Learning to drive defensively can drastically reduce the chance of an accident. Employing defensive driving techniques can also lead to significant financial savings. It has been found that properly trained defensive drivers can: Reduce fuel costs by up to 25%, Reduce maintenance costs by up to 50%. Reduce accident rates by up to 70%.
