The free two hour workshops, helping learner drivers become safer drivers, will offer parents and supervisors hands-on advice on how to provide the most effective driving practice for learner drivers.
Orange and Cabonne’s road safety officer Andrea Hamilton-Vaughan, who is presenting the workshops, said it’s well worth attending.
“Parents and supervisors of learner drivers have a crucial role to play in making our roads safer,” Mrs Hamilton-Vaughan said.
“With that goal in mind Orange and Cabonne Councils have partnered with the Roads & Maritime Services to hold these free two hour workshops in Orange and Molong to offer practical advice to parents and supervisors on how to become safer drivers on our roads”
The workshops cover topics such as: the licence conditions for learner and P-plate drivers; how to use the Learner Driver Logbook; the benefits of on-road driving sessions and tips on supervising a learner driver.
“Parents and supervisors who have attended this workshop in the past have found that it boosted their confidence, helped them better plan driving sessions and allowed them to share their experiences with other parents and supervisors.”
The Helping Learner Drivers Become Safer Drivers workshops will be held at the Orange Community Services and Information Centre at 79 Kite Street on Wednesday, November 22 from 7pm till 9pm.
Molong Central School Library will also host a class on Thursday, November 30 from 7pm till 9pm.
Bookings are essential and can be made by calling Mrs Hamilton-Vaughan on 6393 8600
