The most we’ll ask for is some information Key messages for young people Drive is a free website with lots of cool stuff that will help you get confident behind the wheel. “Free” is important as there are other options that require users to pay. Drive has everything you need to know to pass your learner’s theory test and restricted and full license practical tests first time. Drive’s interactive road code will help you learn the road rules before you sit your learner’s. Pass your restricted first time with Drive’s video driving lessons and the insider guide to the test. Sign up to Drive so you can track your progress, earn points and achievements and unlock the learner’s practice test and tricky test questions. Background information ACC and the Transport Agency worked together for 18 months to create Drive. They’ll continue to work together to continually improve and enhance Drive based on user feedback. Young people were involved in the development every step of the way to make sure what we were designing was going to meet their needs and allow them to learn their way. Drive is designed to help young people be confident and capable on our roads. Our aim is to reduce the number of young people involved in and injured in crashes. “Safety” is woven into all the content on Drive but you won’t find it overtly talked about. This is because ‘safety” isn’t a great motivator of young people in this context.
