Fit to Drive was launched in 2002 after 7 young people lost their lives in road crashes in an 18-month period in Frankston and Mornington Peninsula.
As a result, community members including principals, teachers, parents and students banded together as they recognised the urgent need for a new approach to road safety education. What followed was the introduction of our first program, the F2D Year 11 Workshop.
In the past two decades, Fit to Drive has established partnerships with leading road safety authorities, including TAC, Department of Transport, Victoria Police and Fire Rescue Victoria.
Together, our programs have reached nearly every local government area in Victoria. In only the last five years, we have reached almost 140,000 Victorian students since 2014.
We pride ourselves on delivering relevant, informative, and interactive workshops. Our current program offerings include the F2D Workshop, Steer Right online webinar, and the Green Light Initiative (GLI). We offer these programs in partnership with education providers, local councils and service groups, and emergency services including Victoria Police and Fire Rescue Victoria.
