Young Driver Lesson Giveaway

The first thing I wanted to do as soon as I was old enough was learn how to drive. I loved the idea of being a driver with the independence to go anywhere, whenever I wanted. It took me a few times to pass my test but at the age of 18 I had my own car and loved it. Nowadays you can enjoy driving lessons from the age of 11 which is amazing. Last year big J had a Young Driver lesson and he loved it. If you have a teen that would love to get behind the wheel I am giving my readers the chance to win a Young Driver lesson giveaway.

Young Driver is a groundbreaking driver training scheme, offering driving tuition to 11-17 year olds –so up to six years before they can legally take to the road. It is the UK’s largest provider of pre-17 driving lessons and has delivered more than 250,000 lessons at over 40 venues across Britain. It’s about having fun, but it’s also helping youngsters become safer drivers, by educating them for longer.

Four hundred people lose their lives in accidents involving young drivers each year in the UK. Shockingly, the figures show one in five newly qualified drivers will crash within six months of passing their test, rising to 40 per cent of 17-year old males. For those who have taken Young Driver lessons, the rate of accidents drops by more than a half, to fewer than one in ten. 

Thirty or sixty minute lessons take place behind the wheel of a dual-controlled SKODA Citigo car, with a highly qualified driving instructor. A whole road system is created to help the drivers learn everything from changing gears and parking to using roundabouts and manoeuvring a slalom. Lessons mirror those taken on the road at 17, but give youngsters the chance to take their time without any pressure to pass a test.

The winner will receive a 30-minute lesson at a Young Driver venue of their choosing. Driving tuition is available for youngsters with disabilities, including specially adapted vehicles at some venues. Young Driver is also a great idea for a birthday party.
