Overview of the security initiative
Regular training, such as that offered by the ADAC, helps to increase road safety. Every year around 4,500 drivers and motorcyclists do their rounds of driving safety training in the Dudweiler district of Saarbrücken. Professional trainers lead the courses and help the participants to recognize dangerous situations in road traffic in a timely manner and to react accordingly, which is particularly important for novice drivers, because in Germany the number of 18 to 24-year-olds who have had accidents is the highest in Europe.
