The courses define the obligations and procedures to be observed by drivers for their own safety and that of residents.

Key components include the legal responsibility of drivers; traffic rules relating to the driver; reasons and statistics of traffic incidents; how to deal with different driving conditions; how to react during traffic incidents; and giving way to emergency vehicles.

At the end of the course, an assessment will be made to verify drivers’ knowledge.

The RTA is regulating the sector to “bring it to the highest international standards, especially in addressing safety and security concerns”.
