The Fatal Five

Speeding, drink and drug driving, distraction, seatbelts and careless driving. The five behaviours behind most serious crashes, and the habits that beat them.

How a school workshop runs

Hands-on, honest and memorable

We bring everything we need. You give us a room, a screen and your students.

  1. We start with the freedom driving brings, and what students want from it.
  2. We explore the Cornerstones through real situations young people recognise.
  3. Students try the VR and impairment goggles to feel how quickly things change.
  4. We practise speaking up, with role play on what to say as a passenger.
  5. Everyone leaves with a plan, and teachers get the free follow-up lessons.
