Re: Young Drivers (again)
I just watched the video of the 4/5 day Pathfinder course for 15 - 17 year olds. Extremely impressive. I love the level of emphasis on the mental elements of safe driving - something which I think is missed from a normal process of driving instruction. For the OP's grandchildren living in York, I n...
