The Youth Advisory Group (YAG) is a group of young people who will help shape the RACT Youth Road Safety Program. The Program is an initiative focused on reducing young driver injuries and fatalities and building safer driving habits for young Tasmanians through education, community input and co-designed solutions.

The YAG will provide ongoing advice and feedback to help shape RACT's work, to make sure it reflects the real-life experiences, needs and perspectives of young Tasmanians.

As YAG member, you will: 

• Share your ideas and give honest feedback on new ideas, programs and resources before they are finished.
• Contribute to the design of campaigns, educational resources and other initiatives for young people.
• Suggest the best ways to share important information so it is clear, relevant and engaging.

The YAG will be a trusted sounding board where RACT and young people can test and challenge new ideas, and work together to create solutions that improve road safety for young Tasmanians.

The YAG is run by the Youth Network of Tasmania (YNOT). The RACT Youth Road Safety Program is supported by the Tasmanian Government. 

Applications close at 9am on Monday 27 July 2026.
