Berks County Educates Teens about Distracted Driving

Juniors and seniors at the Berks County School District had a simulated hands-on experience of what it was like to drive drunk or drive with a drunk driver.

To promote National Teen Driver Safety Week, PA DUI Association and State Farm Insurance brought a Safety SIMulator to Governor Miffin High School last month to demonstrate the dangers of drunk driving and distracted driving.

The students "drove" without alcohol and then "drove" after a few drinks.

The difference was remarkable as it hit home the dangers involved in teen drinking and driving. One in four driving fatalities involve 16 to 24 year olds.
