Bristol

This week, RoSPA have set-up campaign HQ at Hicks Gate fire station in Bristol, and watching their endeavours are a bemused set of fire fighters. First up to take his first ever driving test is former army major John Hamilton, now in his 100th year. A self-taught driver who first drove a Bren Gun Carrier, John thinks of himself as a capable driver: "half the accidents I've had have been other people's fault", but it's a rocky start when he mounts the curb within the first few seconds of his assessment.

Elsewhere, 100-year old Geoffrey Gillow has a point to prove to his daughter who wants him to stop driving, and we also meet 91-year old Alfie Harris in Wolverhampton, who must now take the big decision on whether the time has come to hand in his keys.

RoSPA's national campaign continues in Bristol. Among the drivers hoping to impress is former stunt aficionado Dick Sheppard, who set a record for successfully walking away from over 2,000 car write-offs.
