DriveFit 2.0 project secures funding

11 March 2024

The DriveFit 2.0 project , an initiative aimed at significantly improving road safety education for young and novice drivers in the UK, has successfully secured funding from the Road Safety Trust.

This funding is a critical step towards achieving DriveFit 2.0’s aim: to enhance road safety education and address the vulnerability of young road users by redesigning and improving an established intervention.

Building on the success of its predecessor, the DriveFit project, DriveFit 2.0 aims to enhance the effectiveness of pre-driver education through a redesigned, evidence-based intervention.

By incorporating active learning components and leveraging the insights gained from the acclaimed Pre-driver Theatre and Workshop Education Research (PdTWER) project, DriveFit 2.0 aspires to make a lasting impact on the road safety attitudes and intentions of young drivers.
