Code 95 training is a mandatory certification for professional truck and bus drivers in Europe, ensuring they meet the required safety, efficiency, and compliance standards. This training covers road safety regulations, fuel-efficient driving, emergency procedures, and vehicle handling techniques, preparing drivers for real-world challenges. Obtaining a Code 95 certification is essential for heavy vehicle drivers as it enhances road safety, reduces accident risks, and ensures compliance with European transport laws. It also improves employability, providing access to high-paying job opportunities across Europe and abroad. Our structured and comprehensive Code 95 training is designed to help drivers comply with the EU’s professional driver certification requirements.
The European Union (EU) has a standardized set of traffic regulations to ensure safety, efficiency, and uniformity across its member states. These rules include strict speed limits, mandatory seatbelt usage, and regulated work-rest hours for commercial drivers. The program helps drivers get acquainted with crucial vehicle devices like CVS, tachographs, and automated toll systems, ensuring seamless and efficient operations. Special training vehicles are provided for those transitioning to left-hand driving, helping them adapt to new road systems and traffic regulations.This training enhances driver confidence and safety, reducing risks associated with international driving. Enforcement of driving laws is strict, with on-the-spot fines, toll road charges, and digital monitoring systems like speed cameras ensuring compliance. Understanding these regulations is crucial for drivers looking to work in the European transport industry, as non-compliance can lead to penalties, license suspension, or work restrictions
Our specialized safety workshops are designed to equip drivers with essential skills, knowledge, and awareness to ensure safe driving practices, reduce risks, and comply with European road safety standards. By focusing on key aspects such as road safety regulations, hazard awareness, vehicle maintenance, and emergency response, we help drivers become more responsible and proficient on the road.
Our training covers critical areas such as road safety compliance, including adherence to EU traffic laws, tachograph rules, and driving hour limitations to prevent fatigue. Drivers also learn defensive driving techniques, identifying potential hazards, and handling adverse weather conditions. Additionally, we emphasize vehicle safety and maintenance, teaching pre-trip inspections, brake system checks, tire safety, and proper load balancing for secure transport.
A tachograph is a mandatory device used in EU commercial vehicles to monitor driving hours, rest periods, and speed compliance. The system ensures that drivers adhere to EU work-rest regulations, which are designed to prevent fatigue-related accidents.There are two types of tachographs: analog and digital, with most EU countries now requiring digital versions. Drivers must use a personalized digital driver card to record their working hours, which can be inspected by authorities at any time. Failure to comply with tachograph regulations can lead to heavy fines, penalties, and even license revocation. Mastering tachograph usage is a key part of professional driver training for those aiming to work in Europe.
While the EU follows a set of common road regulations, each country may have specific driving rules and additional requirements that drivers must adhere to. These can include speed limits, toll systems, environmental restrictions, and seasonal vehicle requirements. Some regions enforce strict winter driving regulations, requiring snow tires or chains during certain months, while others have designated low-emission zones where only eco-friendly vehicles are permitted.
Additionally, driving conditions and road usage policies may differ based on urban, rural, or highway settings, with specific lane usage rules for heavy vehicles. Certain areas may also have unique traffic signs, parking restrictions, and permit-based road access for trucks and buses. Professional drivers must stay informed about these country-specific rules to ensure legal compliance, smooth travel, and safe driving operations across Europe.
At Globter Asia, we understand that effective communication is just as important as driving skills for a successful career in Europe. Our Language Training Program is specifically designed to help heavy truck drivers develop essential English and local European language skills needed for seamless communication. Whether on the road, at border checkpoints, or when interacting with employers and clients, mastering basic language skills ensures a smooth and efficient driving experience across different countries.
Strong communication skills enhance employability, as many European transport companies prefer drivers who can communicate clearly with dispatchers, colleagues, and clients. Understanding basic phrases and road signs makes cross-border travel much easier, ensuring that drivers can navigate different regions confidently. Additionally, compliance with EU regulations often requires drivers to have a minimum level of language proficiency, making this training a crucial step in their professional journey.
