The package comprises of a folder containing a student booklet, tutor notes, and two posters to be utilised in colleges and other outlets stating the message: ‘You have a 1 in 5 chance of having a crash within the first year of driving.’

Two copies of the ‘What if?’ video and booklet, one for drivers and the other for riders, will also be included in the package. The video gives advice to novice drivers and riders on important issues such as hazard perception, encouraging them to constantly anticipate the actions of others when driving.
