Safe Transport Policy

Negligent driving can have painful emotional and legal consequences. Anyone who cannot/does not drive responsibly must not transport program attendees. Vehicles need to be driven carefully, observing the legal speed limits and road laws.

• All motor vehicles use for transportation of program participants must be driven according to the road rules.
• A leader is never to be alone in a motor vehicle with a child or other vulnerable person.
• At no time should there be more passengers in a motor vehicle than the number of seat belts that are in working order and available for use.
• All motor vehicles are required to be registered, road-worthy, in good working order and driven by licensed drivers.
• If a child/young person is travelling in a motor vehicle by a worker/volunteer who possesses a provisional license, prior written consent should, wherever possible, be given by a parent/guardian, except in the case of emergencies.
