Staying Safe Driver Refresher courses
When did you last have a refresher course for your driving? Have you kept up with changes to the road code? Do you know how ageing can affect your driving?
“Staying Safe” is a refresher course for older drivers. It is a good way to refresh knowledge and build confidence in a friendly and welcoming classroom based workshop with plenty of opportunities to ask questions.
The 3 ½ hour courses are being held in Thames (nearly sold out), Tairua, Waihi, Paeroa (sold out) and Whitianga (sold out), so be quick or miss out.
