AAA Carolina's D.R.I.V.E. Risk Reduction Program
Today's teens are in more danger than ever on our roadways. The increased population and the need for driving in today's society means more vehicles on the road. Because of this, our teens face even more risks to their safety.
Although many teens feel that they are excellent drivers, most are barely adequate. Add the fact that their brains don't fully recognize risk until they reach the age of 25 and you can start to see why so many of our teens die on the road each year.
The AAA Carolinas D.R.I.V.E. program was designed to help teens recognize the various risks they face each day they sit behind the wheel. This course is interactive to help make the learning fun but also help teens develop actual plans of action to implement upon completion of the course.
This program also promotes teen/parent interaction so each knows what the other expects from each other.
