It is a quite big segment. 

First you need to complete DD Course by the approved and certified company trainers and assessors.

Usually big companies involved in oil and gas production/ seismic activities are having DDC courses in their crews or they organize DDC course at the third party service provider. 

Defensive by word says it all. opposite from aggressive / offensive.

Prepare your self  and vehicle for driving, vehicle and safety equipment check before driving.

Plan your trip in advance, calculate time needed to perform the journey plan for rest periods,

Use your eyes to scan the road / rear view mirrors... respect safe following distance, speed limits, signaling your intentions / signalize direction change on time,.... 

Give way if necessary respect other road users. 

Well it is not something you could put in few sentences.
