How can we help?

Research has shown that newly P-platers are more than 10 times more likely to be involved in a casualty crash comparing to L-platers so if that's your face while your learner is on their Ls, imagine how they would drive when they get their Ps. We spend a lot of time and money raising our kids to their best and we certainly don't go through all of those sleepless nights, exam nights and other burdens of raising a child just to let them get injured or even killed at the prime of their age, right? Sorry to be frank but it is a sad reality that people get killed on the roads and unfortunately new drivers are currently overrepresented in the statistics. The Safer Drivers Course teaches learner drivers how to be aware and alert in all different situations, how to manage their space and do not let peer influence affect them, how to think clearly and be decisive in though situations and in return, learners get 20 hours credit in their log books so you can spend 20 hours less on the roads teaching them while hanging from the handle bar for dear life and instead spend that time in your gym or spa relaxing... That's a priceless feeling, right?

The Safer Drivers Course was introduced in 2013 and throughout its life it has successfully managed to drop the number of casualty crashes involving new P-platers from nearly 900 a year to nearly 600 a year*. That's a 33% reduction. Putting it simply, 300 fewer parents will be crying on the side of a hospital bed this year, thanks to the Safer Drivers Course. It's a priceless training that is fortunately heavily subsidised by the NSW government so everyone can benefit from it without a significant financial burden.
