BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
The question that many Security Drivers and Secure Transportation providers have heard – "Why do I need a Security Driver – Why can't we use a chauffeur service?" Or – why can't we use an Uber or Lyft car?
A few years ago there was an article that appeared in Security Magazine, titled "What to Look for in Travel Security and Executive Protection Services." While the article may be old the content is still valid. The author concludes that while the Executive is traveling, having a security-trained driver is paramount to a successful executive protection program. As the author emphasizes in the article, the benefits of a security-trained driver extend well beyond their greater ability to utilize a vehicle's performance capabilities, and we'll add, particularly in unfamiliar locations far from home.
The article goes on to say that there is no formal definition of "security-trained driver" that exists; there is no central governing body whose credentials you can trust to lead you to the right provider. A "Security-trained driver" could mean anything from a military veteran with 20+ years of relevant experience to a taxi driver who's gone through a defensive driving program.
We respectfully disagree with that comment.

"There has been a standard accepted by the corporate Kidnap and Ransom Insurance (K&R) and the High-Net-Worth (HNW) community for more than four decades. It is called the 80% standard."
"A good chauffeur is concerned about not spilling the boss's coffee and avoiding bumps. Generally, chauffeurs can handle routine emergencies if they happen slowly. This has nothing in common with the skills needed for a trained security driver. "
