Suwanee: Two hours to safer teen driving

By Staff
SUWANEE - New teen drivers and their parents can register by this Friday for the Suwanee Police Department's free two-hour Georgia Teens Ride with PRIDE (Parents Reducing Injuries and Driver Error) program. The class will be offered at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 25, at the Suwanee Police Training Center at 2966 Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road.

The course focuses on driver attitude, knowledge, and behavior. Rather than a technical, hands-on driver training program, PRIDE addresses seat belts, crash dynamics, Georgia's teen driving laws, parental influence, and peer pressure.

The course is free and open to the public, but space is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration is required by Friday, March 13; registration forms are available at suwanee.com. A parent or guardian is required to attend with their teen.

The City of Suwanee Police Department offers PRIDE in cooperation with the Georgia Traffic Injury Prevention Institute.
