What institutions say about Sane Driving.

Appreciation, recommendations and approvals from the organisations that have engaged our workshops, from 2016 to 2026.

Featured reference

Central School of Motor Transport, BSF Academy, Tekanpur

In its own words, the school is a premier institute of its kind in the Border Security Force, training BSF personnel, other Central Armed Police Forces, state police and foreign trainees in motor transport. It is ISO 9001:2015 certified and has been declared a Centre of Excellence by the Ministry of Home Affairs for its Driving and Maintenance Course. It is also the only BSF institute accredited by the National Standards for Civil Services Training Institutions.

Letter of appreciation

From the Dy Inspector General, 15 February 2025

Trainees were highly benefitted, and the workshop was appreciated by trainees and faculty. The school strongly recommends that the programs be conducted regularly at all levels in the BSF and beyond, including for family members and children of driving age.

“particularly effective in correcting participants’ attitudes”

Second letter of appreciation

From the Dy Inspector General, 11 March 2026

A year later the school repeated the same assessment and recommendation in a second letter of appreciation, again recommending the Responsible Driver & Road User Program for regular use across the BSF.

In February 2026 the school also invited Sane Driving to run a workshop on civic sense and safe, responsible road user behaviour for trainees of its Constable (Tech) course, proposing dates in the first week of March 2026.

BSF Directorate General, Administration

Letters of January 2023 and January 2024

In 2023 the Directorate circulated Sane Driving’s proposal to BSF formations so units could organise sessions. In January 2024 it told all headquarters and units they may continue the workshops as required.

BSF Training Directorate

Schedule of December 2017

Scheduled two-day driver workshops at 20 sector headquarters across six BSF frontiers between January and June 2018.

Deputy Inspector General (Training), BSF Headquarters

Recommendation letter, May 2017

After two pilot workshops at the Central School of Motor Transport in April 2017, the DIG found the concept, content and method of delivery very appropriate for understanding and correcting wrong behaviours and attitudes. BSF recommended the program to any institution that wants to motivate employees or students.

Inspector General, Meghalaya Frontier, BSF

Recommendation letter, July 2018

Officers, subordinate officers, other ranks and drivers attended a two-day workshop at Frontier Headquarters Shillong in March 2018. The Frontier recommended such programs be organised regularly in all BSF locations.

“very fruitful for all ranks”

25th Battalion BSF, Chhawla Camp, New Delhi

Feedback letter, October 2018

The battalion found the workshop for drivers and their supervisors covered aspects not taught in any curriculum. Braking-distance experiments showed that even drivers with more than 20 years of experience did not know their actual braking distance. The battalion recommended the workshop and posters for BSF battalions.

“an eye opener for all the participants”

BSF Directorate General

Permission letter, June 2018

Permitted Sane Driving to complete braking-distance experiments on loaded BSF vehicles, on wet and dry surfaces, at Chhawla Camp.

Tripura Frontier, BSF

Approval letter, May 2019

Approved a two-day training program for drivers in safe and responsible road driving, to be held at four locations in the Frontier.
