The National Speed Awareness Course (NSAC) is for people who have received a police notice for exceeding a UK speed limit and have been offered the course as an alternative to a fine or points on their licence.
Using a range of interactive and informative modules TTC’s expert trainers help motorists expand their understanding of speed limits and recognise the negative consequences of speeding in order to change behaviours and reduce reoffending.
The NSAC course is part of the National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) and is licensed by UKROEd. It is a behavioural change course for people who have committed a speeding offence, and who have been diverted from court by the police using a Conditional Offer Fixed Penalty Notice (COFPN).

Very useful experience
Valerie, National Speed Awareness Course
The instructor was fun, not at all scary and very informative. I learned quite a lot that I wasn’t aware of particularly the reason for yellow backed signs. It would benefit the nation if all road users had a refresher course every 5 years or so. Taunton race course is an excellent venue with ample parking.
A course for everyone
Jane, National Speed Awareness Course
I must admit I was not looking forward to participating with this but can honestly say it was an enlightening experience. You get to think about your actions and the correct way to deal with issues that may cause you to speed. The tutor was informative and approachable and made the course inclusive.
Online speed awareness course
Adele, National Speed Awareness Course
Our host, John, was absolutely brilliant. He taught without preaching, spoke without judging, added humour without making it comical, anchored important elements in a way that made them memorable. He gave clear expectations in such a pleasant manner that I didn’t want to let him down. He coached us perfectly and I could have listened to him all day long. I came away inspired by him, so much so that I would like to train on how to deliver these courses.
Well worth attending even for experienced drivers
Geoff, National Speed Awareness Course
The course tutor was friendly and made the whole experience interesting. The facts about speeding distance and braking distance was a real eye opener. Another fact is that 93% of all traffic accidents are caused by the motorist!! He didn’t take any prisoners and made other attendees aware that they were expected to take part or be deleted from the course. When I was first given the opportunity to either pay a fine or attend the course I was really reluctant especially when the course lasts 2 hours and 45 minutes, however the time passed really quickly and I’m sure everyone took something away from the course. It has made me more aware of how speeding can affect so many lives.
Excellent training course
Jane, National Speed Awareness Course
The woman taking the training course was welcoming, friendly and efficient. Everything was explained perfectly and sensibly. She made me feel comfortable in spite of the fact that I had speeded in a 30mph zone on the A303. I felt that I could engage with the training with ease, and it was easy to understand how going just one mile an hour over the limit could make a potential crash much worse.
