Episode Details

Hobart’s learner driver mentor program is bursting at the seams—with over 100 young people waiting years just to get behind the wheel. For many, driving isn’t a skill—it’s a lifeline to jobs, independence, and opportunity. Free, volunteer-led mentoring bridges the gap, but demand far outstrips supply. Officials are rolling out incentives to recruit more mentors, aiming to slash wait times from years to months. For volunteers, it’s more than teaching—it’s unlocking futures for those who’d otherwise be stuck.
