Do you regularly drive around with your kids in the car?
If you do have the young ones in the back seat on a regular basis then this advert is for you, as the Transport Accident Commission Victoria says, “the truth is that your kids learn more from your behaviour than you think they do”.

From the TAC Victoria: “Positive role modelling by parents of 5-12 year olds has the potential to have a huge influence on their child’s future driving behaviour.
“The TAC has used this key piece of research to develop this, our latest campaign and the next stage of our long-term Parents and Road Safety Strategy. The goal of the strategy is to reduce road trauma for young drivers in their first months of solo driving and beyond.
“Instilling safe driving behaviours and attitudes from a young age is key to achieving this goal.”
So, just remember, the next time you take a call or flip someone the bird while driving with your kids in the car, you are inadvertently teaching them some seriously bad habits.
