2.4. Vehicle Dynamics Learning Objectives Students begin with vehicle dynamic exercises that are designed to enhance car control skills and awareness of interactions between the vehicle, driver, and operating environment. Use of vision and sensitivity to vehicle language (communication from the car to the driver) is stressed throughout the day. During vehicle dynamics training students build experience behind the wheel that will help them maintain control over their vehicle, predict outcomes, and act when necessary to improve those outcomes.
These
As training progresses the focus shifts from basic vehicle dynamics to solving security problems. The students learn to escape an ambush by both driving in reverse and ramming a vehicle (ramming may be simulated). This exercise now includes a familiarization on negotiating curbs. Students are instructed how to safely climb and descend a curb as a possible escape maneuver. The students learn to take over driving a vehicle from the passenger seat in the event the driver is incapacitated.
The final exercises of the driver training block are scenario based. These scenarios (drive through, ramming, and reverse out) are designed to get the students to think about some common situations they may face if they were under attack. During barricade confrontations students are coached to maintain a high level of awareness, especially when entering a choke point. Students are trained to recognize the elements of an ambush to recognize an attack before it starts and to take immediate action. Security awareness will always be the key to successful performance in these final exercises.
