On 30/8/23 an 87-year-old driver lost control of his vehicle while in reverse and was heading towards a 4 year old girl at high speed, when Casey Wright put his body in the path of the car saving the little girl’s life. It has affected his life, and the lives of those around him dramatically. In this episode, Instructor Liz has a chat with real life hero Casey and his partner Briahne, who have had to deal with the horrific injuries, and the long term effects of this crash. They also talk about how better driver education, along with more stringent medical tests and adding practical driving tests to the states without aged tests would create a safer environment for all road users.
