Saturday 26 October 10:00am Community Webinar
‘DRIVING SAFELY IN WINTER. TIME FOR CHANGE.’  

With the clocks going back on 27 October and temperatures dropping drivers need to prepare for the challenges of winter driving.

A 2018 RAC report of five years of collision data identified a 5% increase in collisions in the two-week period after the clocks go back. Surveys of car rentals and insurance companies suggested this is because more people are driving  in poor light conditions.

This webinar provides advice for mature driver on how to sharpen driving skills, prepare their car and plan journeys to reflect winter driving conditions.

At this event we will be making an important announcement about a national trial of standardised mature driver assessment for which we need the support of mature drivers in Gloucestershire.
