Fit 2 Drive - f2d is a community program for young people that concentrates on personal safety and responsibility giving them strategies to make them safer on the road.

f2d actively encourages and empowers young people as road users to look after themselves and their friends.

The f2d focus is a Year 11 workshop in Secondary and TAFE Colleges that is facilitated by trained University student Road Safety Ambassadors.

The Year 11 f2d workshop is an enrichment program that helps to coordinate other Victorian Traffic Safety Education initiatives that are explained in the core curriculum resource “Traffic Safety Essentials”.

The half day Year 11 workshop is directly funded by the local community and greatly assists young people to assert themselves in high risk situations where for example a driver is speeding or impaired.

f2d Bendigo is coordinated by Malcolm Pollitt who will run a workshop for 300 young people at Catholic College Bendigo on February 11th 2010.
