Who We Are

L2P Drive With Me is designed to create safer drivers. Over 45 young people died on SA roads in the first 9 months of 2023. This is tragic, and preventable. The worst year since the 1970’s… let’s stop young people dying from a lack of driving experience and skill.

We hope to help educate and give confidence to members of the Community through the medium of gaining their Probationary driver’s license. We seek to enable those who may be facing personal, familial, or financial hardship, and are thus unable to achieve this goal many of us take for granted. 

The brainchild of founding members Mark Davis, Maureen Wisdom and Rosslyn Ward, they have a combined fifty years’ experience helping charities, non-for-profits, and community benefits programs. 

We have six vehicles on the road providing these lessons in the communities that need it most. From Salisbury in the north to Port Adelaide in the West. Kilburn in the mid-north and Glandore in the south. We are fulfilling the needs of the community where a vehicle, licenced driver or both are missing for a learner to get the experience they need. 

What we do

Undertaking driving lessons, or even being able to have a parent sit-in for the hours necessary to gain your license, is something that many of us take for granted. There are many members of the Community who either have no mentor to attend them, no time to practice driving, or no reliable vehicle to complete their hours. These issues come from a myriad of circumstances, however at the end of the day the requirements for a Probationary license are resolute. 

This is where we come in. We provide the mentors and vehicles for any student willing to commit to the hours necessary, a twenty hour course performed over ten lessons. This covers the basics of driving to those with only the minimum hours, all the way to night driving for the more experienced participants. 

The participants can select their own mentor from a list of volunteers, ensuring that no learner ever has to feel uncomfortable with their surroundings. Our goal is to ensure our learners feel confident with their driving skills, something that can only be achieved in a safe environment. 

Additionally, we are seeking to provide education on the vehicles themselves, basic maintenance such as checking the engine or changing a tyre. All of this is to ensure that when our learners go for their Probationary test, they not only know how to drive a car but feel confident and in control behind the wheel. 

Our Goals

Our most important role by far is instilling confidence in the participants that approach us.  This creates safer drivers. And aims to save lives.

We make sure that they are not left behind in learning a crucial life skill, one that enables them to move forward into the world on equal footing regardless of their background. 
We hope that with our program’s success, we will increase not only the confidence but the employability of our learners. As we run more participants through the course, we hope to expand our productions across South Australia and eventually across the entire country.
