MyCarMyRules was born out of a vehicle Olly stopped during a young driver operation he was involved in as a Roads Policing Officer. The car had a 17yr old driver and three of her best friends in the car. When Olly asked the driver about the risks her and her passengers were facing, she passed him a piece of paper she had folded up in the centre console. On it was written MyCarMyRules with the following five rules;

• Do not distract the driver.

• Everyone must always wear a seatbelt

• No drugs, no exceptions!

• Only decent music to be played.

• No smelly farts!

Every passenger that got into this young lady’s car had to agree to her rules before they got a lift anywhere.

Olly soon turned this excellent idea into a template for instructors and road safety professionals to engage young drivers and encourage them to set rules for passengers. Those who’ve used it find it a great conversation starter and we know from behavioural science that planning ahead and managing expectations can prevent awkward moments later!
