    What Happens When We Actually Work Together?

    The full team is back together for this one, as Terry is joined by Olly Tayler, Kate Monk, Tom Stenson, and Dr Liz Box to dive into one key theme: collaboration. Bringing together perspectives from driver training, research, and road safety campaigning, the panel explores why no single group has all the answers, and how real progress comes from working together. From coaching learners and involving parents to influencing wider road safety strategy, collaboration sits at the heart of it all. The conversation also tackles the barriers: fear, cost, competition, and mindset. But the message is clear: small steps, curiosity, and a willingness to try can open doors. If the goal is safer drivers, collaboration isn’t optional; it’s essential. Donate to Terry's 5K a Day challenge for Brake Brake's Young Driver Safety Report Dr Box's Podcast recommendation

    Life Sentences for Families, 14 Months for Drivers

    In this episode, Terry Cook (creator of The Instructor Podcast) convenes the team - driving instructor, Kate Monk and former police officer Olly Tayler - to confront the lack of consequences for road harm. The panel analyses a harrowing case where an 18-year-old driver received only 14 months for the deaths of two passengers. Together, they dissect the legal gap between 'due care' and 'dangerous driving' and the 'exceptional hardship' loophole that keeps high-risk drivers on the road. The team moves beyond the legalities to discuss the necessary cultural shift in parenting and education required to end the 'lost generation' of drivers. This is a vital discussion for instructors and the wider community on restoring accountability to our roads. The Honest Truth My Learner Driver Instructor Performance & Psychology

    Raising the Standard: Responsibility, Influence and the Future of Road Safety

    In this full-panel conversation, Terry Cook, Olly Tayler, Kate Monk, Tom Stenson and Dr. Liz Box come together to tackle a big question: If driving standards are poor, what part are we playing in changing them? The discussion explores whether standards are genuinely declining, why so many drivers believe they’re “above average,” and how a test-focused culture may be setting learners up with a low starting benchmark. The group challenges the idea that passing the driving test equals competence, arguing instead for a long-term growth mindset built on reflection, emotional regulation and responsibility. Parental influence becomes a major theme. From assessing parents’ driving to using resources that educate whole households, the panel explores how instructors can create ripple effects far beyond the learner in the driver’s seat. Dr. Liz Box reflects on 20 years in road safety, highlighting progress in behavioural science and Vision Zero thinking, while also acknowledging structural challenges, political turnover, and the unfinished conversation around graduated driver licensing. This episode blends frontline experience, research insight and practical ideas, all centred on one challenge: What part are you playing in supporting safer roads?
