Welcome to Mind Over Motor!

If you are a parent, a teacher or a young driver, you’ve come to the right place. Mind over Motor’s mission is to save the lives of young drivers around the world, and to reduce road deaths and injuries to a fraction of what they are today. A big call? Yes, but possible if we begin teaching the right stuff and using the right training.  This is where you will find information about the ground-breaking new book Motorvate, as well as our unique Motorvate Course.

Nothing has ever been released before, anywhere in the world, that tackles the issue of young driver safety with such honesty, humour and common sense and that was said by others, not us! And the issues are global – so although we’re currently based in Australia, our strategies for keeping your young driver safe apply equally to anyone in the world who drives! Authors Jennie Hill and Geoff Fickling have worked with many thousands of young drivers for more than 18 years. In 2003 they decided to write a unique book, titled Motorvate, which is designed for parents wishing to make their kids safer on the road.  Please have a look around the site, and use the CONTACT US page if you have any questions or comments. Jennie Hill is a teacher with post-graduate qualifications in special education, and has worked as an advanced driving instructor and lecturer for 15 years. Geoff Fickling has extensive driving experience gained from 20 years in motorsport competition, plus 17 years experience as a respected advanced driving instructor, and driving expert often called upon for commercials, film and television.
