Bondi Safer Drivers Course

The Bondi Safer Drivers Course teaches learner drivers techniques and strategies that help minimise unnecessary risk taking, distractions and influences that can affect a drivers capability. The Safer Drivers Course in Bondi was created to help reduce the number of serious injury and fatal crashes, involving our young and inexperienced drivers.

Research has proven that novice drivers are approximately three (3) times more likely to be involved in a fatal crash than the average crash rate for all drivers. In addition, NSW crash data also shows that novice drivers, such as red P platers, are most vulnerable in their first year of driving solo.

Designed for young drivers under the age of 25, this driver safety course in Bondi is engaging, fun, informative and encourages learner drivers to contribute in group discussions and activities. Learn simple yet effective techniques, that can help keep our learners safe on the roads.
