This course allows you to work at your own pace to gain a solid understanding of the essential traffic safety concepts. The only thing standing between you and success is effort.At the end of each topic, there is a quiz to check your level of understanding, and a test at the end of the module to see if you have the proficiency to move on to the next module.
