Purpose: Outlining a new approach model, of the experientialist type, starting from the informational and operational resources in the field, by reviewing similar research projects and studies. Methods: literature review. Results: Setting a landmark for our activity so far and presenting a starting point for the development of new humanistic training programmes for driving vehicles. Setting out the humanistic psychologists’ preoccupation with the cultural particularities of traffic in Romania, wishing to help reduce the number of accidents on the roads in a profoundly humanistic manner, which can be then applied worldwide, with some small adjustments, in order to save human lives through prevention and awareness. Conclusions: The training based on Unifying Creative Meditation focused on developing the abilities to drive vehicles improves the individual’s life quality through emotional development, learning procedures, knowing, mindfulness, and awareness, with the purpose to increase safety on public roads and to save lives.
