Why Safety Training for Young and New Drivers?

[sign] [sign]

Young and New Drivers are at the highest risk to be involved in crashes.

This is because of inexperience, overconfidence, and lack of quality driver training.

There are many factors involved in a typical crash, but a large percentage of accidents are also caused by driver distraction. Cell phones, pagers, handheld devices, and DVD screens all contribute to this situation.

This course is specifically designed for the new or young driver, and will alert the participants to the hazards involved in driving and how to protect themselves.
