Avatar is spanning the globe to make the world a better place through safe driving.

“We tend to view things that happen in other countries as, well, ‘foreign.’  But, it’s interesting to note that the desire to prevent accidents and injuries is universal,” explains Mark G. Gardner, CEO of Avatar.

Safe Driving Valued Internationally

“Safe driving is valued in Europe, Asia and South America just as it is here in North America,” he explains. “That’s why we’ve sent our video crews all over the planet to produce world class defensive driving courses. We teach professional drivers everywhere the same principles that have worked so well for our domestic clients."

According to the United Nations, nearly 1.3 million will die this year as a result of road traffic collisions.  This is more than 3,000 deaths each day.

In the past few months, Avatar production crews have been on the ground and shooting new instructional programs in such diverse places as Italy, Siberia, Argentina, Saudi Arabia and Oman.  Avatar’s trademarked LLLC™ Defensive Driving Course (Look Ahead, Look Around, Leave Room, and Communicate) applies no matter what the terrain or language.
