Caboolture is taking the initiative to enhance road safety for its senior residents with a series of informative forums scheduled in time for Queensland Seniors Month.
The Moreton Bay region will host three road safety forums, including one in Caboolture, to ensure the well-being of elderly drivers.
Senior Constable Ricky Blanckensee from Moreton Police highlighted that the forums are strategically timed to align with Queensland Seniors Month. He encouraged local seniors to attend the Seniors Road Safety Forums, featuring guest speakers, exhibitors, and complimentary morning tea.
These forums represent a collaborative effort between regional services, the Department of Transport and Main Roads, the Queensland Police Service, and senior residents across the Moreton District.
Attendees can expect a comprehensive programme covering various topics, including a road rule refresher, guidance on handling traffic crashes, safer living information, and an overview of available support services.
The Caboolture Sports Club, located at 19-27 Station Road, Morayfield, will host the first event on Thursday, 3 October, from 10:15 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Morning tea and refreshments will be provided.
This initiative underscores the community’s commitment to promoting road safety and ensuring senior drivers remain confident and informed on the roads.
