TWO HOURS OF YOUR TIME COULD MAKE YOUR TEEN A BETTER DRIVER. AAA NEW MEXICO’S DOUG SHUPE TELLS US THEY’RE ONCE AGAIN OFFERING A FREE TEEN DRIVER SAFETY WORKSHOP. THE CLASS IS DESIGNED FOR 14-TO-15 YEAR OLDS WHO ARE GETTING READY TO LEARN HOW TO DRIVE.
SHUPE SAYS CAR CRASHES END MORE TEENAGE LIVES EVERY DAY THAN CANCER, SUICIDE, AND HOMICIDE COMBINED. HE SAYS BASED ON MILES DRIVEN, TEENS ARE INVOLVED IN THREE TIMES AS MANY FATAL CRASHES AS ALL OTHER DRIVERS.
THE TEEN DRIVER SAFETY WORKSHOP IS THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17TH, FROM 6:30PM TO 8:30PM AT THE AAA OFFICE ON MONTGOMERY BLVD. YOU’RE ASKED TO PRE-REGISTER AND A PARENT OR GUARDIAN MUST ACCOMPANY THE TEEN.
