Parents/Carers welcome
Learning to drive is one of the most dangerous activities a young person can undertake. It is much more than learning how to make a car go and stop, or even when to go or stop. Driving is an activity that takes place in a complex setting. A typical example is a young person that goes to a friend's house one evening taking another friend as a passenger. This simple journey could potentially expose the driver to a number of issues including:
- Peer Pressure
- Fatigue
- Distractions
Driving instructors who use this site wish to help young people to understand and be able to deal with these issues. These instructors pay a premium to access this site and in so doing demonstrate their commitment to Road Safety. Please take a few minutes to look through the site, and an excellent starting point is the Try a Taster link where you will find information to assist you to support your learner driver.
