This course is all about defensive driving.

You may be on your L's or P's and you probably think you can drive pretty well. But everyone can be a better driver. You can save lives, including your own and your mates, by making better decisions when driving.

The top driving instructors from the Australian Driving Institute will teach you how to plan ahead, look ahead and think ahead, as well as the best way to operate your vehicle.

The course covers defensive driving theory and improves your driving technique in practical exercises. Learn things many instructors don't teach!

Learn about:

• Braking & steering techniques

• Safe following distance

• Understand alcohol, distraction, peer pressure, fatigue

• Accident avoidance

...and much more!

Participants on their Learners license or P-plates who live, work, go to school, play sports or volunteer in the Adelaide Hills Council District are eligible for a subsidised fee of $70.

Learners and P-platers who don't meet these criteria are still welcome to participate but will be charged the full fee of $120.

Please note:

Lacunae transforms our separation into something where joy and connection bubbles up through movement, music and art.

Recreated from its premiere run at MONA FOMA 2020 by Tasmanian tech-art collective Soma Lumia, this boundary-pushing team have taken their distinctively hybrid media practice to create a dance party reflective of the world’s recent experience with lock-down and isolation.

Joined via live-feed to share silhouettes and music tracks simultaneously from different locations, people can communicate and dance with one another across SA in this joyous shared space full of colour, music and movement.

Music tracks by composer Jesse Budel.
