Young drivers in Stockport to get road safety tips
Over the next fortnight road safety officers from Stockport Council will visit Cheadle and Marple College and work with the students to improve their driving skills.
Students will have the opportunity to use a driver simulator to develop their driving skills and will be tested on their reactions and how to deal with common hazards faced on the highway.
They’ll receive information about driving safely from road safety officers supervising the activity.
In the last three years 142 young drivers aged 25 years and under have been injured on Stockport’s roads. In addition 46 young passengers have been injured in vehicles driven by these young drivers.
