This program is a worldwide, comprehensive traffic safety training program designed to protect and preserve the safety and well-being of today’s sailors and marines across all Navy and Marine Corps installations. Our goal is to significantly reduce deaths and injuries as a result of traffic and recreational mishaps.

Cape Fox Professional Services (CFPS) provides professionally trained and qualified instructors to Navy and Marine Corps installations worldwide, who combine classroom instruction with hands-on instruction for safe operation of privately owned and recreational vehicles. The curriculum includes comprehensive training in basic, advanced, and sport bike motorcycle safety, basic and advanced off-road vehicle safety, and traffic safety. To provide a more realistic driving experience and to help ensure all sailors and marines have the necessary real-life skills for effectively and safely operating a vehicle and motorcycle, CFPS is integrating the most progressive motorcycle and personal vehicle simulators into its training program. The simulators are used to safely introduce users to traffic situations. The machines being used in conjunction with the traffic safety program are the Honda SMARTrainer for U.S. Navy installations, and the Simulator Systems International, EF-Bike for the U.S. Marine Corps installations. This program is providing the Marine Corps Installations of the western United States with Lee Parks Total Control, an advanced level riding clinic geared at upper level training for motorcycle mentors.

CFPS has several innovative projects that promote both safety and the skills training courses that we provide. CFPS has supplied over 250 Hyosung GT250 motorcycles to Navy and Marine installations worldwide for students to use for course training. CFPS has partnered with Teton Gravity Research (TGR) and One Eyed Bird, LLC, to produce Semper Ride, a high intensity motorcycle feature length film starring some of the world’s top athletes in the sport, highlighting and advocating the proper training and gear for motorcycling and encouraging dirt-bike riding as an alternative to street riding.

In order to provide the best service and training we have tasked the National Traffic Safety Institute to provide our program evaluation. You can find information about our program on posters and brochures located on installations. We will soon launch a traffic safety website, providing prospective students and safety professionals a one-stop shop of information and registration material.

CFPS centrally manages and directs the administration of this program. More than 120 trainers have been deployed to Navy and Marine Corps installations worldwide, including major hubs in California, Florida, North Carolina, and Virginia, as well as at various overseas locations in Spain, Italy, Bahrain, Japan, Singapore, Greece, and Korea. 58,343 Navy Sailors and 9,127 Marines have been successfully trained since the programs start in September 2008.
