Our next FREE webinar is at 10am on Saturday 28th February 2026 

Join us for an informative webinar when we unpack the Government’s New Road Safety Strategy published on 7 January 2026. We will examine,

• How mature drivers are characterised
• Risks and issues identified for them
• Support and interventions proposed for mature drivers

The webinar will report on the response from road safety organisations and in the media and share information on how to be involved in the consultation process which closes on 31 March 2026.       

Whether you drive daily or occasionally, this session will help you understand the proposed changes and consider how to plan accordingly.
