The ambassadorship was an enlightening experience, and it allowed me to interact with like-minded individuals looking to learn about and educate others on road safety. The TL2D team is incredibly thoughtful and very generous! They are all very capable of making their ambassadors comfortable and as part of the first round of their ambassadors, I can definitely say that doing this ambassadorship is worth it!

TL2D helps everyone to be successful with the roles they are given, hence every individual involved in the team requiring extra support doing projects were able to contact the managers comfortably. We also worked in a small group, ultimately resulting in keeping track of the work and enhancing the quality of work by discussing once a while. Furthermore, the schedules were flexible and they would extend the due dates for those who could not get finished with their work. Every member had their own conditions outside of volunteering for TL2D such as: extracurriculars, academics, family and personal activities. With their professional management, I was able to balance my academics and personal life while still contributing to this program! To the future applicants, do not hesitate to apply! It is an excellent program that builds your skills, that respects your personal schedules!

Being part of TL2D has been a great experience so far. I strongly believe that Vision Zero Youth Network (VZYN) is a great initiative in educating teen drivers about road safety. Even though I have not hit the road yet, by being an ambassador of VZYN, I have learned a lot of road safety rules which I did not know previously. Being involved with TL2D allows me to make a positive impact on my community and help around. I have also met a lot of new people who share similar beliefs about the importance of road safety which has fostered amazing collaboration and future friendships. Overall, it has been a great social and personal development project and I would have loved to return back had I not been in grade 12 this year.

Joining the VZYN team has come with a lot of benefits. It has allowed me to continue to advocate for community safety, in particular, Vision Zero. Vision Zero values the importance of education, engineering, engagement and enforcement in a bid to keep our roads as safe as possible. I'm happy to be a part of a talented and enthusiastic team that works to educate youth on safer driving practices. Roads connect us, take us to our loved ones, and on wonderful journeys! I can't wait to continue working alongside our award-winning team, working with community stakeholders, and most importantly, the youth of my community.
