Young drivers
Speeding is a dangerous game
It can have devastating consequences for you, your passengers, your loved ones and other road users.
Fitness to Drive – National Roadshow
Throughout 2026, we will visit towns and cities across Scotland, talking to mature drivers about the changes to look out for as we get older and the steps that can be taken to keep driving safely for longer. Our friendly fitness to drive team will be on hand to chat to drivers about their experiences and to provide tips and advice on steps that can be taken to remain safe behind the wheel. There will also be opportunities to find out more information about Mature Driving Reviews on the day and to sign up if you would like to try one.

Driver behaviour
Keep to the speed limit
Speeding can have big consequences. These statistics show the difference it makes.
Speeding contributes to 1 in 5 deaths on Scotland’s roads.
Because speeds are higher on non-built-up roads they account for almost two thirds (64%) of road deaths.
Fatal collisions caused by drivers going at 65mph could be halved if the drivers slowed down by just 5mph.
Children and Educators
Our teaching resources equip children with the skills, knowledge and attitudes that will help them stay safe now and in later life.
