An

video,
launched
in
April
1996,
aims
to
improve
the
attitude
of
young
drivers
who
feature
disproportionately
in
the
UK’s
road
accident
statistics.
Featuring
Alexei
Sayle’s
’street-wise
humour
and
sense
of
tragic
irony’,
the
video
tries
to
promote
safe,
responsible
and
considerate
driving,
making
viewers
aware
of
the
high
accident
risks
faced
by
young
male
drivers.
Six
modules
cover:
speed,
behaviour,
danger
spots,
hazards,
novice
drivers
and
passengers,
and
include
tasks
for
students
and
tutor
notes.
Price
£24.99
(or
£13.99
for

video
only).

in

to
prevailing
pathologising
models,
and

includes
various
’resource’
appendices.
