The resource has been welcomed by Honor Byford, chair of Road Safety GB, who said, “Parents, grandparents and carers all want to ensure their children’s safety, including when they are travelling in a car and later when they want to learn to drive themselves.

Their no-nonsense, practical approach is just what we need to find out what to do and how to do it.”
