Volunteering
Maroondah TAC L2P program volunteer mentor
The TAC L2P Program matches learner drivers from 16 to 21 years old with a fully licenced volunteer driver and program vehicle to help them gain driving experience.
Volunteer driving mentors can have a vital role in empowering and enhancing a young person's confidence, by teaching them to drive safety and reduce crashes, injuries and fatalities among young drivers.
