Abstract

This paper highlights the strategic approach taken towards youth road safety education in Western Australia. It provides a working example of how research findings have been formulated into strategic action through the development of a targeted road safety education program for young Western Australians. A model of best practice for the development of road safety education initiatives, particularly in regard to Priority 6 - special groups and issues (youth, those living in rural and remote areas) as identified as National Road Safety Priorities is presented and an opportunity for discussion on the advances in research and practice in road safety education will be provided. The topics covered, including the identification of key target age groups, a focus on the role of parents in road safety education and the development of strategic alliances for implementation, will be of significant interest to conference delegates as they provide examples of practical strategies that can be used by a range of road safety professionals to address issues in local and/or state-wide contexts.
