The NRMA - ACT Road Safety Trust and the ACT Department of Urban Services have in partnership embarked on a unique integrated graduated licensing system. The overall general aims are 1. To give greater information and education to young people prior to receiving their Learner Licence; 2. Increase the amount of driving practice during the Learner Phase; 3. Offer a unique intervention to under 26 year old Provisional drivers during their period of greatest risk. "RoadReady Plus" is a program that has been operating for two and a half years in the ACT. It takes the form of a facilitated discussion workshop based on participants sharing their driving experiences with other new drivers. It explores the areas of hazard recognition, risk management, the development of safer attitudes and is a timely reminder of how complex the driving task really is.
