Saison 4 · Épisode 101

dimanche 9 août 2026 • Durée 31:09

Saison 3 · Épisode 99

mardi 26 mai 2026 • Durée 40:28

Episode 99. Russell White, Australia’s Road safety expert joins Liz in this episode, to highlight the mistakes many drivers make, the influences that contribute to the road toll, and how doing small things as a driver can make a huge difference to not only our own driving happiness, but also those road users around us! Russell and Liz started their road safety journey around the same time, bringing more than a collective 55 years of driver training to this chat. Russell White Managing Director Driver Safety Australia and Founder and Chair of the Australian Road Safety Foundation Australian Road Safety Foundation

The Australian Road Safety Foundation is a not for profit organization dedicated to improving road safety awareness, enhancing driver education and reducing the impact of road trauma.

The Expert Interviews: Anxious Drivers with Dr. Amanda Stephens

Saison 4 · Épisode 98

samedi 16 mai 2026 • Durée 27:56

Anxious drivers. Why do some drivers feel their heart race the moment they turn the key? In this episode, Liz sits down with Dr Amanda Stephens, a leading researcher in driver psychology, to unpack what’s really happening behind the wheel when anxiety takes over.

Together, they explore:

how stress and fear affect driving performance

the difference between cautious and anxious driving

practical strategies to rebuild confidence on the road

what instructors and supervising drivers can do to help

Whether you’re a learner, a parent, or a professional instructor, this conversation reveals how understanding anxiety can transform the way we teach—and drive.

The Learning Journey

Saison 4 · Épisode 97

dimanche 26 avril 2026 • Durée 13:15

Episode 97. The Learning Journey. In this episode, Liz dives into the real, and sometimes very emotional side of learning to drive — the part no one warns you about. From frustration and plateaus to breakthroughs and confidence, we explore why progress is rarely a straight line and how emotions can either stall or supercharge learning.

Liz also shares a personal story from her karate training: the kata she just couldn’t get… until she could. It’s a powerful parallel to what every learner driver experiences — the moment where persistence finally pays off.

Whether you’re a learner, a parent, or an instructor, this episode gives you the tools to understand the emotional journey behind the wheel and how to keep moving forward even when it feels like you’re stuck.

Stupid Driving Habits: Late Braking with Sonia and Liz

mercredi 8 avril 2026 • Durée 26:31

In this episode, Liz and Sonia dive into one of the most common (and secretly funniest) learner‑driver habits: leaving the braking just a bit too late. Between the two of them, they’ve seen every version — the hopeful “I think I’ve got this”, the silent internal panic, and the classic wide‑eyed “oh no oh no oh no” moment as the car ahead gets closer… and closer. Expect plenty of laughs, real stories from the instructor’s seat, and practical tips to help learners (and supervising drivers) understand why late braking happens and how to fix it without drama. If you’ve ever clutched the door handle, stomped an imaginary brake pedal, or watched a coffee cup take flight, this one’s for you. A fun, honest, slightly chaotic look at a skill every confident driver needs. #DrivingLessons #LearnerDriver #DrivingInstructor #ConfidentDriving #RoadSafety #LateBraking

Keep Left, Stay Safe: The rule many drivers get wrong!

Saison 4 · Épisode 94

dimanche 25 janvier 2026 • Durée 14:23

Episode 94. Keep left. This episode dives into one of the most misunderstood road rules in Australia: keeping left. Yes, the law says you must keep left on multi‑lane roads over 80 km/h (depending on your State or Territory rules) or when signed — but the real story goes way beyond the legal threshold. Instructor Liz explains why staying left is one of the simplest, most effective safety habits any driver can build, no matter the speed limit. From smoother traffic flow to fewer risky lane changes, better visibility, and helping emergency vehicles get through faster, this episode shows how a small habit can make a big difference. Perfect for learners, supervising drivers, and anyone who’s ever wondered why the right lane isn’t a place to settle in and get comfy.
