Driving training helps keep young drivers safe.

Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for American teenagers and that is one reason the Ford Driving Skills for Life program is teaching teens driving skills that could save their lives.

The program is put on by the Ford Motor Company and the Governors Highway Safety Association with help from law enforcement officers.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 6 teens, ages 16 to 19, die ever day from motor vehicle injuries.

If you have a teen that would like to attend the program it is being held at the PNC Arena, Tuesday, March 29 and Wednesday the 30th. For more info and to sign up: www.drivingskillsforlife.com.
