The Safer Essex Roads Partnership is supporting mature drivers to continue to drive safely, for longer.
Our ‘Driving with Confidence’ scheme is for anyone concerned about their driving skills to increase your confidence in dealing with today's traffic volumes and speeds. We can address any concerns or anxieties you may have regarding driving and can give you the reassurance that you are still a safe driver.
This free course is developed by experts, to support older drivers that may have become less confident with their driving skills, particularly if they have not driven for a period of time.

To book a session or speak to one of the team for more information, please email: driverintervention@essex.gov.uk.
Or telephone 03330 137590 for the office between 8am and 4pm Monday to Friday.
Testimonials
“With the right kind of support, we can make informed choices about how to drive safely on the roads, regardless, of our age because ultimately, the decision to be a safe driver rests in our hands.”
