FOR several months in the Star, I’ve read of various fatalities due to dangerous driving.
I witnessed my best friend get hit and killed by a car at six years old, which created a strong anxiety around driving.
To overcome my fear of driving, I enrolled on an Institute of Advanced Motorists (UK’s leading road safety charity) Advanced Driver Course, and the volunteer observers at the St Helens branch, have all been exceptional, in making my driving better and safer, and giving me the confidence to now drive regularly.
Not only am I a safer driver now, but I’m better trained to spot the dangerous drivers before they become a problem for me.
