Range Exercise Schematics Layout / Description

Preparation of the Student Deliver briefing on each exercise to be performed and learning outcomes. Establish and emphasize importance of maximum range speed. Establish uniform visual signals for range safety. Distribute a printed copy of the range exercises to each student.

Training Vehicles Each vehicle must be in safe working condition. Inspections will be performed no less than twice a day. Vehicles used on the driving range must be fully equipped and mechanically sound with high quality tires and fully functional safety and communication equipment. If more than one vehicle will be used on the course, communication will be established among the vehicles to prevent collisions.

Vehicle Preparation– 1 day prior to event Vehicle/s will complete a full vehicle inspection form by Lead Instructor for the following: Tire pressure – All tires will be set a minimum pressure of 45 psi; Fluid levels – All fluid levels will checked and adjusted as needed;

Vehicle Preparation– 1 day prior to event - Continued Secure items – All items that have the potential to move about the cabin freely will be removed for the vehicle. Lead Instructor will confirm spare tire is secured; All safety restraints are in proper working order; No loose or damaged body panels.

The exercises are conducted using the concept of performance-oriented training. Each instructor will explain, demonstrate, and coach before evaluating a participant. For some exercises, there can be value-added training by having additional participants in the vehicle beyond the driver and instructor. All the participants must be allowed to practice until they can meet the evaluation standard. There may be a rare case when it is agreed that the participant's progress is insufficient and that the participant should not continue in the training. General Information

Range Preparation Secure all entry points with extra vehicles and cones; Set up canopy; Remove foreign objects and debris (F.O.D.) walk; Set up range exercises – completed by students;

Range Preparation Proof range - completed by Lead Instructor; Deliver safety briefing to all students; Confirm all students are wearing retro reflective vests; Demonstrate all exercises prior to any student driving.

Range Any half-mile or greater stretch of straight, four-lane roadway that can be closed off, or abandoned airport runways may be used. The dimensions of the exercises used in this module may be altered to provide safe training in the space available. Permanent ranges may or may not provide enough space to set up all of the exercises. Each exercise will have a 360° buffer zone, including a safety area for staging and exercise completion/shut down.

Range - Continued Exercises requiring backing maneuvers will incorporate the use of a spotter for safety. Instructors must evaluate each location and adjust the exercises to the available area. Enough space should be available to set up several exercises with enough space between each exercise area to operate safely. Sixty to 100 orange traffic cones, 18 to 28 inches in height, will be required for each exercise.

Conducting Exercises Instructors shall follow these procedures for each exercise: 1. Explain to the participant what is to be accomplished and the minimum performance standard. 2. Demonstrate the procedure to the participant. 3. Coach the participants as they practice the task. 4. Have the participant practice the procedure. 5. Evaluate the participant's performance of each procedure.
