Meet AFGAs 2020 Sponsor: MasterDrive #AFGAwards #AFGAs2020

Motoring is one of the industries which iloveza.com covers and being the Information Highway, safe driving on our national highways is always on top of the list. 

The After Fajr Grind Awards is another way in which iloveza.com is spreading positivity for South Africans.

  

One of the businesses who are collaborating with iloveza.com to make South Africa better for all, and have generously sponsored a few prizes for the Awards, is MasterDrive.

MasterDrive is a results-driven, driver training organisation that engages with and assists companies in managing driver risk interventions.

The company was established in 1999 and became part of the RAC Group (established in 1997) some 9 years later - in 2008 – and has expanded its field of operation to cover the African continent with dedicated branches in SA’s three main centres.

To that end, MasterDrive has a dedicated team of professional, internationally accredited instructors who deliver training on a range of programs that encompass the full spectrum of vehicles – from motorbikes to cars to busses and trucks.

In addition to delivering internationally proven defensive driving courses the company also offers training required by legislation - dangerous goods and forklift – bespoke courses are also available to corporates and emergency services, all with a view to changing and developing driver behaviour.

The company’s proven track record with a number of SA’s top 500 companies ensures that it is a viable operation providing a platform for rolling out its own BBBEE transformation program that contributes toward the wellbeing of all South Africans.

MasterDrive also boasts a proud record of supporting a number of NPO’s whose drive is to educate road users on safety and so enhance the profile of changing behaviour by whatever reasonable means it can promote and offer. These include, but are not limited to, Psychometric assessments, on-road assessments and corporate safety events.

The MasterSuite of products include:

• MasterDrive
• MasterBiker
• MasterTrucker
• MasterFleet
• MasterDriver
• MasterTorque (online motoring publication)

Our Why is summed up as follows:

Making a difference, one day, one kilometre, one life at a time!!!

Defensive Driving Training:

This is the core driver training that MasterDrive provides. This is the only proven training method, adopted internationally, that can successfully reduce crashes and improve driving standards.

Defensive driving is driving in a way that can prevent potential collisions, irrespective of the incorrect actions of other road users in various weather, road and traffic conditions. As 90% of crashes are as a result of human error, training all drivers in defensive driving could result in drastic changes to crashes and the consequent road fatality statistics.
