Accident terror inspires young driver to change attitude
12:34pm Sunday 2nd November 2008
Comments (0)A TERRIFYING car accident persuaded a young Hereford driver to improve his ability behind the wheel.
The experience of overturning his car led Martin Rover-Parkes to join Herefordshire Advanced Motorists (HAM) to develop his road skills and he is now calling on other young drivers to follow his example.
The realisation that the police were expected to find him dead made Martin, aged 21, clean up his act and he is now encouraging other young drivers to take a course for them.
For the full story, see this week's Hereford Times.
