My friends are trying to make this happen here in Alabama, since we are in the top ten in the nation for teen driving fatalites,

My friends,
I have been in contact with a group known as Street Survival, a group that is formed to keep kids safe on the streets. This is not a course to teach kids how to race; it is designed to help keep them alive.
As you all know about my youngest sons recent mishap and problems, I started a search for some sort of school that would help provide skills to keep him between the white lines. This may be it.
The plan is for the end of October, I will need some qualified driving instructors for this. People that know how to control a car and how to pass this info along to young kids 16 – 18 years old. This will be a volunteer basis and will take a Saturday.
I am starting a search now for a place to have this event. The next thing is promotion in our local schools, churches and YMCA’s.
I need your help.
Check their web site for details and let me know if you would be willing to assist me in making this happen in Alabama. The gentleman I talked with has been looking for a way to break into the Alabama area and he is all behind me in helping pull this together.

thanks for your consideration

FWI, I took this course in Dallas last year in my MINI, and it was fun, and some what informative. The only downside was I got a speeding ticket driving home from it ...go figure.

 

FYI, your local BMW CCA chapter, (of which you can join because BMW owns MINI) has a teen-survival driving school... which you might want to check out...

 

The BMWCCA website is where I learned about Street Survival, but there were NONE held in Alabama, that's why we are trying to get things rolling to have one here,

 

I believe that Heart of Dixie chapter is talking about doing one of these schools, I'll ask Sat when I do a drive with them.
