Holiday driving. How to get to your destination without stress, and be able to enjoy the journey! A few extra tips from Instructor Liz:
Learner drivers should have extensive experience with general driving before attempting highway and open road driving.
Travelling with the family can be a great adventure! But make sure you arrive safe and sound.
Don’t allow the driver to be distracted – kids, you must keep the driver hydrated and happy.
Passenger: Shotgun position – check all lights are working, give the car some cool driving songs, you are the back up driver so keep watch!
Passengers: rear seats – either: eye spy, watching a device with headphones on (so the noise doesn’t distract the driver) or hold intelligent conversations to keep the driver alert. Alternate choices include; singalong, reading books, thumb wars.
Above all, please, follow the road rules, prepare for the journey – know your route and make sure your car is roadworthy.
Let’s all work together to get to our destinations safely!
With your sense of humour (and driving adventure) intact.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
