World-first road safety education complex
Discover the science behind crashes and take a trip into the future at Road to Zero, a world-first road safety education experience at Melbourne Museum.
Large-scale projections, interactive touch screens and virtual reality reveal the science of road safety and why human bodies aren’t built to survive major impacts.
While the Road to Zero education experience is aimed at secondary school students, entry is free and open to anyone to visit.
Explore the latest in vehicle technology and road design and how we can each contribute to making zero road deaths and serious injuries a reality.

Road to Zero was developed by the TAC in partnership with Melbourne Museum. It draws on decades of TAC research, and was co-created with road safety and education experts to help explain how we can prevent crashes and protect drivers, passengers, pedestrians, motorcyclists and bicycle riders.
Year 6 Safe Journeys Program
The Safe Journeys program is a practical and engaging Year 6 program (incorporating a visit to Road to Zero at Melbourne Museum) that supports students to become safe, independent travellers as they near the exciting milestone of starting secondary school.
Created in collaboration with Year 6 teachers and the Victorian Government’s Road Safety Partners, the Safe Journeys program empowers ‘tweens’ to develop trip planning skills – including the best route to and from secondary school – as well as safe road and public transport practices.
A key aspect of the program is the opportunity for students to apply their newly acquired knowledge to planning and undertaking a journey (excursion) to the Road to Zero Education Complex at Melbourne Museum where they’ll extend their learning through immersive road safety experiences.
