SMART START FOR YOUNG DRIVERS
The California Highway Patrol is offering a traffic safety program for teenage drivers and their parents. The Start Smart Program is aimed at helping future and newly licensed teenage drivers become aware of the responsibilities that accompany the privilege of being a licensed California driver. The program is designed as an educational tool for parents and teenagers in an effort to reduce the number of teenage injuries and deaths resulting from traffic collisions, which are the leading cause of death for 15-20 year olds. The
primary objective of the program is to provide  an understanding of how poor choices behind the wheel can affect the lives of numerous people. The Start Smart program also provides teens and parents with information on defensive driving, traffic laws in California, dynamics of traffic collisions, tips on avoiding traffic collisions, and DUI awareness. Smart Start classes are free of charge. The next class will be on Tuesday, March 9, at 6 p.m. at the Santa Cruz CHP Area office.  For more details, and to make a reservation, please call Officer Sarah Jackson at (831) 662-0511.
