When Kim Smith retired from Tasmania's police force, he decided to volunteer at his local neighbourhood house.He's travelled the state creating maps and other visual props for people preparing to take their learner's testHe was asked to take classes on road rules and found himself on day one in a room full of migrants, many of whom knew little English.
"In every country, wherever you go, if you want to settle down, you need to get the drivers licence first," she said."When there are so many people, it's difficult to follow the rules every time," she said. "Kim is very energetic… when I'm not able to understand something, when I ask him one question again and again, he's never tired."
The vast number of migrants from third world countries not only have probably never driven a car but may have never been a passenger in a car, motorbike or bus yes but not a car. For us watching our parents driving was providing subconscious tuition for many, but sadly not all.
a migrant can easily drive in Australian road compared to their home condition but Australians cant drive anywhere outside in an immigrant country.. harder there,..and most of the local road crashes are due to locals and not due to migrants..we need to teach our kids better.
