Daniel Herrgods is currently in Mauritius with a team of professionals from Belgium to provide training courses for the driving school instructors, teachers of the Mauritius Institute of Training and Development and drivers employed in parastatals and body transportation companies.
Throughout the week, those who attended these courses participated in simulation exercises to improve their reflexes and driving.
Among the weaknesses noted by the Belgians: the inability to maintain control of a vehicle when an obstacle arises. The driver, they observe, is rapidly losing the sense of direction.
"I saw about forty people driving beside me. I watched how it goes. Frankly, this is a bad result for the moment. We need to review some basic training. [...] I understand that there are many accidents. I see! We need basic courses are improved. It is important that drivers of trucks are trained a little more professional. We learn every day. If you stay stagnant, you will have the statistics you have, "said Daniel Herrgods Radio Plus.
