TAC praises peninsula’s leadership in push Towards Zero 7KH 7$& SUDLVHV WKH 3HQLQVXOD¡V leadership in push Towards Zero, as the annual Arthurs Seat Challenge fun run, held on the Mornington Peninsula, sees thousands of people raise a sweat, in a bid to lower the number of deaths and serious injuries on our roads. The Transport Accident Commission has again thrown its support behind the Arthurs Seat Challenge, which promotes road safety education for young people and raises money to support the Fit2Drive program. All funds from this event, are channelled back into local secondary schools across the Peninsula and Frankston area, UHPRYLQJ WKH Ă€QDQFLDO EXUGHQ IRU schools and ensuring all Year 11 students have access to this best practice road safety program. The popular event, held on Sunday November 12, is expected to draw some 2000 participants and is yet another important step in support of the 0RUQLQJWRQ 3HQLQVXOD 6KLUH¡V push to become a Towards Zero municipality. 7$& FKLHI H[HFXWLYH RIĂ€FHU -RH &DODĂ€RUH SUDLVHG WKH 0RUQLQJWRQ Peninsula community for continuing to show leadership in 9LFWRULD¡V SXVK WRZDUGV D IXWXUH where every journey on our roads is a safe one. “The Mornington Peninsula Shire has embraced a positive and proactive approach to road safety for several years now and the community must be congratulated for initiatives such as the Arthurs 6HDW &KDOOHQJH Âľ 0U &DODĂ€RUH VDLG ´7RZDUGV =HUR GHĂ€QHV RXU
Promoting Road Safety: The Annual Arthurs Seat Challenge Fun Run Picture: Yanni approach to saving lives and reducing injuries on our roads and it requires buy-in and commitment from everyone – we all have a role to play and Mornington sets a great example.� Last year, 10 people died on Mornington Peninsula roads, half of them were young drivers aged 18 to 25. The Fit2Drive program delivers peer facilitated workshops with Year 11 students in secondary
schools across the state. The program aims to change attitudes and thus reduce risky behaviours for all young road users, including drivers and passengers. With too many young people dying and suffering serious injuries on RXU URDGV 0U &DODĂ€RUH VDLG URDG safety education was crucial in shaping the choices young drivers make. “From 2012 to 2016, on average 21 per cent of all drivers killed
Victorian roads were aged 18 to 25, despite that age group representing around 14 per cent of all licence holders.� “Our research shows that young drivers are more likely to take risks on the roads and this combined with inexperience and the fact that they are often driving cars without the latest safety features – is a major reason for the over-representation in young driver deaths.�
“Good driver behaviour is learnt from a young age which is why we have road safety programs like Fit2Drive running in schools across WKH VWDWH Âľ 0U &DODĂ€RUH VDLG You can learn more about Towards Zero by visiting www. towardszero.vic.gov.au or register for the Arthurs Seat Challenge at www.arthursseatchallenge.com. au Schools can book a Fit2Drive Workshop by visiting www.f2d.com.au.
