COMING SOON

 

LCSC Workforce Training is developing a Motor Safety Training Center at our North Lewiston Location. We will be using the latest, "State of the Art" skid avoidance technology designed in Sweden and used to train the British Army and NATO forces.  Students will learn how to manage "Traction" and maintain control in a variety of simulated, adverse road-way situations.  Our new, "Business Class" (crew cab) truck will be the classroom for drivers from all areas of the private and government transport and service industries.  From fire-fighters, to long haul truckers, our training will meet the needs of anyone in our region who wants their drivers to be better prepared for driving the unique roads and weather conditions of our region.

 

We now have a welcome addition to our training fleet.  LCSC has purchased a Chevrolet Tahoe to be integrated with the skid avoidance technology.  This exciting addition now enables the Motor Safety Center to offer Skid Avoidance Training to the general public.  From Drivers Ed students, to grand-parents, and everyone in between, we will provide training which will prepare everyone on the diverse weather conditions of our region.
