Mature Drivers Awareness Sessions

Mature Driver Awareness Sessions in Telford and Shropshire

A fantastic initiative has been put in place to provide FREE driver awareness sessions to mature residents in Telford and Shropshire. Mature drivers can experience a virtual reality film to bring awareness to the changes that happen when aging, and how this can impact on their driving.

During the session, you can expect to watch 2 short films through Virtual Reality Headset (VR Headset), these have been specifically designed to highlight areas that become more challenging as we age. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss any concerns they have, as well as understanding how to manage risks to keep driving safely.

These sessions may also appeal to family members who may have concerns or questions on behalf of older relatives who are still driving. Please note that attendees will not be assessed based on their driving and information discussed will not be reported anywhere.

Booking is essential as spaces are limited – for booking and more information email: roadsafety@telford.gov.uk
