“Learning to drive can be an intimidating process for both young people and their supervisors, and I’d love people to come along with any questions they might have about road safety,” Dr Scott-Parker said.

“Young drivers do face a higher level of crash risk and I’ll be covering how people can take action to reduce that risk.

“Most of these tips are relevant for every driver, no matter what their age.”
