I wanted to do a short deal about some training opportunities out there that are highly recommended in the industry. As we all know, driving in war zones is one of the most dangerous things you can do out there. So having a knowledge base about the do’s and don’ts of security driving is a great skill to have and to continue to work on in your career. And if you want to get some excellent training, go do a course with Tony Scotti.
Personally, I have not gone to any of his schools, but everywhere I go for training, his name is mentioned as being the best for security driving instruction. So to say his school is at the top of my list, is an understatement.
Another thing I want to mention is that driving training can be a hoot. I did a course through ITG and it was amazingly fun and action packed. It was also life saving, because those skills are what I used while driving in vehicles in Iraq.
So let me throw some links your way, and feel free to contact Tony if you have any questions. I highly recommend reading through his blog and his books, because they are packed full of outstanding information about security driving.
I also wanted to mention that Tony will be putting on an Instructors Course in January 2009. Check out the schedule below for other great courses. –Head Jundi

This blog, like the SecurityDriver.Com web site is for people who have an interest in cars – security – security driving – or driving in general. For over 35 years I have been working in the security driver training business. My bio will explain it all.
Although I have been around the driving – car – security business for a long time I am new at this Blog stuff. I hope everyone exhibits some patience. The blog will list recent vehicle ambushes, and talk about old ones. The blog will cover my opinion on most everything related to cars, driving, security, books, training and at 69 years old and after 35 years of in the business I do have an opinion on most everything. You may disagree with my opinions and that’s OK in fact, it’s good. The basic concept is to share information and open up a dialogue with those that have an interest in the same things I do.
