Road Trauma Awareness Seminar’s (RTAS) is delivered in collaboration with magistrates, prosecutors, and defence lawyers to include education as a component of sentencing for traffic offenders. RTAS has been growing for more than ten years and is delivered in 33 locations across Victoria each month.
We’ve changed the way we deliver our program to keep our participants, facilitators and volunteers safe. From 1 May 2020, we are offering the RTAS Program Online.
The current Calendar is below. Anyone can book into any program as they are all online, so it doesn’t matter, for example, if you live in Ballarat and book a Broadmeadows RTAS.

What if I can’t do an Online Program?
We know this online option may not work for everyone. We will work with yourself and Magistrates to assist those referred, have every opportunity of adhering to court directions and in providing support to courts with reasons that orders may need to wait to attend an RTAS. If you have any queries, please contact us on 1300 367 797 or email rtasadmin@rtssv.org.au.
