The initiative is designed\u00a0to help women protect themselves from aggressive drivers and potential dangers should their car break down.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The scheme, named “Women in Gear”, and is run by serving police officer and self-protection expert Andy Williams, consists of a\u00a0workshop based course to teach basic maintenance and useful ‘get-you-home’ tips, which are primarily aimed at helping women deal with minor vehicle issues as opposed to having to wait alone at the roadside for help.<\/p>\n

In addition to gaining knowledge concerning basic mechanical maintenance, the course also includes a lesson in how to avoid road rage situations, defensive driving to make drivers safer, and how to ward off a possible road rage attacker.<\/p>\n

The course is currently only being run by Hendy Kia in Eastleigh, Hampshire, however the\u00a0plan is to expand the scheme country wide.<\/p>\n
