Wasted Lives Flyer

The Wasted Lives Programme, delivered FREE by experienced Lancashire Road Safety Partnership facilitators, is one full day dedicated to challenging soon-to-be young drivers' (year 11's) attitudes to the risks associated with driving. They'll develop a better understanding of the potential consequences of taking risks behind the wheel and learn coping strategies.

So what does it involve?

Modules delivered include:

Fast and Loose - Studded with hard hitting DVD clips, in this activity participants will be asked to volunteer contributory factors to crashes and try to rank them into the 'fatal 4'. Students will examine the consequences of inappropriate speed and not wearing a seatbelt.

Risk It? - Participants will learn what a unit of alcohol is, how long it stays in the blood and how it affects your body. They will examine the consequences of what happens if you risk driving, especially the morning after.

Fit to Drive? -
Students will learn what BOTH illegal and legal drugs and medication do to a person's driving ability. They will find out about the drug wipe testing kits and undergo Field Impairment Tests police carry out on suspected drug drivers.

Missing Matthew - Missing Matthew is a true story of how Matthew (22) lost his life in a horrific crash, racing his best mate. One moment of madness left sheer devastation with his family and friends. His parents tell the harrowing story and leave us in no doubt about the widespread devastation such a loss causes.

Everything to Live For - Vicky Peters died in a road traffic collision when she was 18. She was a passenger in a car when the driver chose to speed. This is the real life story told by Vicky's family about the shocking incident that occurred and advice for Lancashire's young people.
