ABOUT VANESSA’S PLACE

Hi it’s me, Vanessa’s Place – your go-to mate for all things road safety (minus the boring lecture vibes).

We get it – life’s busy, your group chat is popping off, and you’ve got places to be. But whether you’re cruising to uni, heading to work, or road-tripping with your mates, staying safe behind the wheel is kind of a big deal. That’s where Vanessa comes in.

Vanessa is here just for you – the 18 to 25 year old crew – to help you navigate the roads by sharing road safety tips about drinking, drug taking and ways to look out for each other. We’re here to help you look after your mates. We’re here to keep it real, serve up the facts, and help road safety actually make sense in your world.

HOW WE SHOW UP

Vanessa started hanging out in festivals back in 2005 and is powered by the Transport Accident Commission (TAC).

Vanessa has now had a glow up and now has her very own Tiny Home to bring an experience to events across Victoria to help punters get home sweet home.

Vanessa’s Place attends events with a friendly team and a fleet of vehicles including our Tiny Home, Mini V (Mini Van) and Bute (Ford Ranger) to leave a lasting impression after a day or night out with mates.

So whether you’re a new driver, a seasoned road tripper, or just here for the memes and myth-busting, Vanessa’s got your back.
