Free TEEN Driving Skills for Life Program
This summer, the Ford Motor Company Fund is bringing the Driving Skills for Life program back to New England.
Wed. & Thurs., July 26-27: Seeking Speedway, Seeking, MA
Registration Link (with info): here.
In case you haven’t heard about this program before, this (100% free) hands-on driving program is taught by actual race car drivers, and I can tell you that it is a blast.
Teens will learn skills that go beyond driver’s ed. Skills include how to handle a spin out (in a Mustang, no less) as well as speed management, reaction time etc.
They’ll even have to go through a closed course while being utterly distracted by texts and an instructor, as well as donning what we call “impairment” glasses.
It’s a real eye opener for many. With vehicle crashes being the #1 killer of teens throughout the country, we are passionate about giving teens the skills they need behind the wheel, and believe that we’ve found a fun way to do just that.
