Thumbs up Held at NHMS, "Street Survival School for Teens"

Probably a good occasion to mention this:

"Street Survival™ School" in New Hampshire...

Quote:
"...64.6% of teen accidents are caused by driver error. The Street Survival™ program's mission is to educate teens on how to avoid accidents before they happen, by thinking and looking ahead.

The Street Survival™ school is not just your high school Driver's Education course. It is a one day, "hands-on" driving experience that teaches teens between 16 and 19 years old, about their car's handling limits and how to control them. We use real-world situations, practiced in a safe, closed course, with in car coaches, so that teens can learn techniques that can save their life...The school uses several braking exercises, including ABS braking, threshold braking, braking on a curve, and single and double lane emergency lane changes. These life saving accident avoidance maneuvers prepare students for many real-world situations..."
