Inspired by similar efforts in other states and supported by the NC Governor's Highway Safety Program, the NC Friendly Driver Program provides important information to help motorists safely co-exist with bicyclists and other vulnerable road users.
This interactive (and even entertaining) workshop discusses: Motorist driving habits that impact people who bike and pedestrians; Explanation of common bicyclist practices; How to avoid common crashes between motorists and vulnerable road users; Active transportation infrastructure (like bike lanes); and Complete Streets concepts.
Both in-person and online options are available.
In-person sessions are recommended for a more interactive experience. Online sessions are available for larger or geographically distanced groups.
Session times range depending on format. Our "Lunch and Learn" format: 30 minutes-1 hour. Our full training (with free membership to BikeWalk NC): 1.5-2 hours.
Sessions are tailored to include local county information and can be tailored for specific motorist populations (e.g. young drivers, commercial drivers, etc.).
