Designed as a two-part package (one for learner drivers and one for parents/guardians to attend together) the Safer Journeys Together – learner driver and qualified supervising driver awareness road safety session is delivered at SAPOL’s Road Safety Centre simultaneously and offers road safety information to both groups. Obtaining a licence is a very exciting time for young drivers and it is important that they are aware of licence conditions and safe driving practices. Parents/guardians need to be aware of the changes to road rules and their responsibilities when acting as a qualified supervising driver. Abigail Anderson is SAPOL’s current Road Safety Ambassador which will see her work closely with SAPOL’s Road Safety Centre to share her story. Her powerful road safety message will be used to highlight the ongoing trauma suffered by family after a fatal road crash and she will speak to the learner drivers during the session.
