In these 10 situations, a bodyguard as security driver is more effective than a chauffeur
Discretion, anticipatory behavior, precise reactions: A security driver from RH Security is much more than a classic chauffeur. Our security drivers are bodyguards with foresight who not only get you safely to your destination, but also recognize what others overlook: situations that appear harmless on the surface but require the utmost attention in the background.
Our offer for greater security: Bodyguards as drivers
For entrepreneurs, high-profile families, executives, and politicians in particular, protection in the vehicle is not a luxury, but a contribution to personal safety, stability, and freedom of action. Even beyond acute threat situations, a chauffeur service with personal protection stands for risk minimization and efficiency.
We have compiled 10 typical situations from our experience in which the discreet protection of a bodyguard as your driver will give you peace of mind and security.
10 situations in which a chauffeur service with personal protection makes all the difference:
1. Arrival and departure situations
Court hearings, internal clarifications, political discussions: in tense situations, safe, quick, and discreet arrival and departure are essential; a stationary vehicle is always a potential danger.
2. After threats, stalking, or assault
If the police or authorities are unable to provide immediate protection, a gap arises. An experienced security driver fills this gap in terms of mobility outside a safe location.
3. Routines with predictability
People who regularly travel the same routes—between home, office, school, or law firm—become predictable. Professional drivers avoid patterns, vary routes, and increase safety through inconsistency and unpredictability without drawing attention to themselves.
4. Separation, conflict, or departure with potential for escalation
Whether for business or private purposes, escalations often do not arise during the appointment itself, but before or after it – e.g., in the parking lot. Protection here means above all presence and overview.
5. Accompanying children or family members
When the security situation is tense, improvisation is not advisable. Discreet protection can also be provided for trips to school, events, or vacations – without visible measures.
6. Events in an uncertain environment
Whether it’s a private party or a public event: if the participant structure or security situation cannot be clearly assessed, a driver with tactical training is recommended.
7. Protection in the event of increased public visibility
A TV interview, a political statement, or media coverage is often enough to become the target of approaches or stalking. The aftermath is often more critical than the event itself.
8. Protection for sensitive material or confidential documents
It is not only people who need protection. When transporting confidential documents, contracts, or electronic devices, it is also advisable to have an escort with increased security standards.
9. Efficient working under protective conditions
A security driver not only provides physical security, but also allows you to concentrate on your work in the vehicle—without interruptions, observation, or distractions. This reduces downtime and increases freedom of action.
10. Transition phases after incidents
If the situation has not yet been fully assessed – e.g., after an incident, a threat, or an assessment by the authorities – a security driver allows you to remain capable of acting without losing any time.
Transport service with protection expertise – for people with responsibility
You are the focus of attention. You make decisions, bear responsibility, and are visible. And that is precisely why safety on the road is not a secondary issue.
At the same time, it is often the only time of day when you can work undisturbed—without distractions or observation. A driver who can do more than just drive makes all the difference: because they think ahead, plan ahead, de-escalate and protect – when it matters.
You don’t want to attract attention. But you want to be prepared. And you want to be able to rely on someone at your side who stays calm when others get nervous.
Then RH Security is the right partner for you.
