Driver Safety Courses at the Michigan Center for Decision Driving (MCDD).
Studies show that even the best of drivers have a tendency to overestimate their driving abilities. This could have serious, even deadly, consequences in a dangerous situation that requires highly developed decision-making skills and quick reactions.
To reduce crashes and improve highway safety, it is essential that commercial drivers fully understand proper stopping and skid-control techniques that are unique to the type of vehicle they operate.
At the Michigan Center for Decision Driving (MCDD), professional truck drivers learn decision driving techniques both in the classroom and in actual hands-on activities using the facility's skid course.
MCDD is an all-day course at the Eaton Corporation Proving Grounds in Marshall, Michigan. The course is offered Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
The fee for Michigan drivers is $50. The fee for out-of-state drivers is $200.
