Baobab Training

Our belief in intense personal training is what defines us from other companies. It is crucially important for any vehicle user to know the capabilities, limitations and features of that specific vehicle.

Just another beautiful Friday morning in Ghana where our Baobab team is ready for on-site training. Driver training is our passion. Road safety is our motivation.

Track custom built by the Baobab team to help simulate various driving situations for training purposes, vehicle dynamics and handling in emergency situations.

Have a happy, peaceful and fun Easter, filled with marshmallows, chocolate bunnies and family time 🐇 If you and your loved ones are out on the roads, keep safe and enjoy the drive!

We were blessed this morning with the most beautiful scenery over parts of Gauteng with sunlight shyly peeking through misty landscapes.

Limited visibility is one of the most dangerous driving conditions a driver can face, and this includes mist and fog. Here's a few tips for your driving style during these misty mornings:

✔️ Slow down your speed and make sure you are seen by turing on your headlights and foglights

✔️ Keep your distance to give yourself enough time to react in an emergency or if traffic suddenly slows

✔️ Keep your windows clear by making sure your windscreen wipers are in good condition and use your aircon or heater to demist windows

✔️ Delay your journey if these driving conditions make you nervous, and once the weather has cleared you can sing again to your favourite tune

Safe and professional driving is not just a skill, it's an attitude!

Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt.

Our team is heading to Kamoto Copper Company today for a few weeks of training where we’ll be covering defensive driving, emergency stopping and vehicle handling in theoretical and practical applications.

Oh, glorious rain in Gauteng! 💦 With this comes….mud! This can easily be the most fun you’ll have going off-road or be the most painful experience.

Muddy tip of the day: If you’re finding it hard to gain traction in the mud, twisting your steering wheel quickly from side to side can help. Rather than digging straight downward, doing this will let your tyre’s sidewalls and corners search for grip along the edges and walls. And often, it will find just enough to keep yourself moving forward. If you can’t keep moving forward, try reversing just a little bit and try moving forward again.
