Almost five years ago, Schneider Consulting GmbH expanded its business area with the pure truck & car driving school dieFAHRERmacher. Founders and operators are Dinu and Gabriela Baumgartner-Schneider.
Focus on motorized heavy traffic
While Dinu Schneider, as an instructor for trucks and cars, adult educator, certified EcoDrive trainer, CZV course instructor, examination expert and subject specialist, concentrates fully on training, his wife is concerned that the increasingly extensive administrative and coordinating tasks ensure smooth processes.
Dinu Schneider: "From the very beginning, the primary goal of the new training center has been the highest level of professionalism in every respect in order to prepare new drivers for their tasks in the field of heavy motorized traffic.
The name comes from a student driver
Started in this business four years ago with a Scania R450 B 4×2 with interchangeable system, during this time already hundreds of professional drivers were allowed to learn their trade at the driving school on their Scania.
Some were already Scania fans, others became so during training at the latest. It is significant that the idea for the new driver training vehicle The Beast came from a student driver.
Side flashing function of the position lights
The Scania 520S B 4×2 NB with air suspension is equipped with LED headlights with automatic dimming and cornering lights, emergency brake assist, lane assist and distance control for both passive and active safety.
In addition, the vehicle also has a driver's airbag in the steering wheel as well as an airbag for the front passenger in the B-pillar. An Orlaco rear-view camera with a 118-degree viewing angle has been installed on the right rear-view mirror and on the end crossbar.
The vehicle also has the side flashing function of the position lights, this as an additional safety for the driver, since cyclists are allowed to turn right even at red lights from next year.
