Safer Roads Greater Manchester is pleased to announce their first FREE Safer Driver Seminar aimed at drivers aged 60+.
Older people are becoming increasingly over represented in casualty statistics as drivers’, passengers and pedestrians. The seminar is an opportunity for attendees to listen to presentations on a series of road safety and wellbeing related topics from various organisations such as Greater Manchester Police, National Highways, TfGM, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service and many more.
The seminar will also be an opportunity for individuals to sign-up for the FREE Safer Driving for Longer courses where the attendee will be involved in a 2 hour classroom based discussion then a 2 hour driving on-road coaching session. This is a great opportunity to boost driving confidence in experienced drivers.
The seminar is an opening to give safety advice to help drivers remain a safer older driver for longer, but there will be presentations from public transport professionals promoting services for those drivers who are thinking of giving up the car for alternative ways to travel.
