THIS week's safer driving column tells the story of a young driver determined to stay safe on the roads.
Eighteen-year-old Elizabeth Johnson has embarked on additional driving training shortly after passing her test.
Elizabeth, from Kingstone, told the Hereford Times that many new drivers slip into sloppy habits shortly after passing.
This is something she is determined not to do.
She has just successfully completed a Skills for Life course run by Herefordshire Advanced Motorists.
It's an experience she recommends and it's one that I am soon to experience myself.
I've decided to take the plunge and do the course myself.
I start next week and hope my shortcomings will not be exposed too much.
Revisit this blog to find out how I do and read tomorrow's Hereford Times to get the full story of Elizabeth's story.
