Security Driving Services: Ensuring Safe and Secure Transportation

What is Security Driving?

Security driving, also known as protection driving or security chauffeuring, goes beyond typical chauffeur services. It is a specialised skill in which trained drivers not only transport clients safely from one location to another but also protect them from potential threats on the road and at points of access and egress.

For high-profile individuals, executives, and families, security driving offers peace of mind by providing secure transport that prioritises safety, discretion, and rapid response to any potential security issues.

    I use BPS regulary through our concierge for airport collections and a route into London for leisure. I feel completely safe and looked after with BPS. The driver’s discretion and awareness were outstanding, and they accommodate our changing schedule with ease and zero fuss. I would highly recommend BPS to anyone seeking reliable protection drivers.
