| FREE DRIVING COURSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE IN SOUTH NORTHANTS |
Young people in South Northamptonshire are being offered free driving skills sessions at Silverstone as part of the Rightracks rural road safety initiative.
The Casualty Reduction Partnership runs two hugely popular free experience days for young drivers in the county. As part of the Rightracks rural road safety project, two extra sessions are being held in February and March for young people living or working in the Rightracks zone. The Rightracks zone includes 54 villages in South Northamptonshire, as well as the larger towns of Towcester and Brackley on the periphery.
Rightracks Drive16, for 16-year-olds to experience their first taste of driving, will take place on Sunday 21 February at Silverstone Circuit.
Included on the day is:
Expert driving tuition in a dual-controlled vehicle in a safe environment
Advice on finding a driving instructor
Collision investigation presentation
Insurance workshop
Rightracks CarKraft Experience, for drivers aged 17-24, will take place on Sunday 21 March at Silverstone Circuit.
Included on the day is:
On-road driving assessment
Driving experience in a skid car
Experience of ABS brakes
Important information about the dangers of speed and drink driving
As a Beacon Authority for road safety excellence, Northamptonshire County Council, as part of its work in the Casualty Reduction Partnership, has been awarded £1.5 million from the Department for Transport to fund the Rightracks project, which is investigating the problems facing drivers on rural roads.
