Free road safety sessions

Drivers who want to refresh their knowledge on road rules and driving safety have been invited to attend a series of free workshops, run by Moorabool Shire Council.

The Wiser Driver Program will cover road rules, safety tips for wiser driving, and the importance of vehicle safety features and roadworthiness.

The program is a four-week course consisting of weekly two-hour sessions, with sessions held every Tuesday from 14 March to 4 April at 10.30 am to 12.30 pm at Lerderderg Library, and every Thursday from 30 March to 20 April from 10.30 am to 12.30 pm at the Ballan Council Chambers.

The course aims to maintain independence and connection to relevant support services for older drivers aged 75 years and older, but younger drivers are also welcome to attend.

Though the sessions are free, booking is essential. To make a booking, contact the Aged and Disability Liaison Officer at 5366 7100.

This program has been funded by a Department of Transport Community Road Safety Grant.
