The company was established in 1987 through the vision of founder Bill Buff, who achieved notable success as a professional race car driver when he realized that the most dangerous part of his day occurred while driving to and from the racetrack. Inspired to impact driver safety he conceived the One Second Advantage™ principle. Rooted in a major automotive safety research study that determined 90 percent of all traffic crashes can be avoided when a driver has one more second to react and knows what to do with it —the One Second Advantage has been, and to this day is the cornerstone philosophy of the training programs offered by Driving Dynamics.

"Good timing for the refresher training. There was a 4 car pile-up in front of me yesterday but I avoided it. ABS works as does look further ahead than just the car in front. I saw that the 1st car was going to rear-end the car in front of it and I stopped with plenty of room. It's great that the training makes us engage the ABS many times because it was a non-surprise when I actually needed to use it. "
"I was driving on I-4 in downtown Orlando heading to Daytona to work. It was raining hard and I was keeping a safe speed when I noticed a tractor-trailer coming up fast behind me. I changed lanes into the middle lane and started to slide to the right due to the concrete roadway. I let off the pedal and looked and steered in the direction of the roadway I wanted to follow. The truck flew by me at a high rate of speed and I was able to control the car. Thank you for sending me to Driving Dynamics class so I knew what to do in that situation."
"I attended the course offered here in Indianapolis. I want to offer that your team was absolutely superb. I am impressed. They worked together to make the day impactful and fun. I have nearly 20 years here at Elanco and have had over those years many hours in internal and external training, and the hours I had with your team set a high mark for an engaged and energetic experience. I want to especially mention Kathy, who had the classroom portion of the day. She did a great job of making this valuable and impactful with her sharing of stories and humor."
