Stuyf Driver's Training
Learn to drive the Stuyf Pickup and Stuyf Cargo safely and responsibly in traffic. All users are required by the insurance company to take a driver’s training. These trainings are provided by Stichting Veilig door het Verkeer, the official trainer for the Stuyf driver’s training.
Stichting Veilig door het Verkeer is the driving trainer for light electric vehicles and has the social goal of enabling education and knowledge sharing in the field of road safety. They work with affiliated driving school owners throughout the country.
The teaching program of the Stuyf trainings consists of a practical training on location. After successful completion of the practical training, the student receives a certificate. The training focuses on vehicle operation, vehicle control and increasing traffic insight so that the driver learns to recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations.
The practical training is conducted under the direction of a trained driving trainer. This person is responsible for the safe conduct of the driver’s training.
Group size & training duration
A training course should preferably last as long as a driver needs to understand the material. Some people need more time than others.
One Stuyf present on location:
In order to keep drivers’ attention and not keep people waiting too long, the group size is preferably a maximum of two people (in exceptional cases three people). On average, a training session then lasts about 2 hours.
Multiple Stuyfs present on location:
When more than one Stuyf is present, training can be done in groups of four. Training time is then approximately 3 hours.
