Street Survival Teen Driving School March 3

Submitted by czei on February 13, 2012 - 10:45am

If you know anyone with a teen who's got a learner permit or recently got their license please let them know about this hand's on drivers school. All of the driving schools I know of just have kids drive around in normal traffic. This school is about getting experience driving in adverse conditions. What happens when you stomp on the brake in the rain? What do you do if your car starts to skid? The school is an entire day at the same facility used for police driving instruction in Sanford.

What do you think about banning hand-held cell phones while driving?

At the Town Council meeting on January 25, 2010, I petitioned the council to open discussions about prohibiting hand held cell phone usage while driving in Chapel Hill.  I also proposed that the town hold a public forum on this topic where concerned citizens can express their opinions about this issue.  Since the election I have heard from many citizens who feel that it is becoming increasingly dangerous to drive in Chapel Hill because people are not paying attention to the road. The problem is particularly bad on campus.
