The Department of Motor Vehicles, the Connecticut State Police, the S.A.D.D. Team, Safe Rides, and many other groups and individuals were on hand to help raise awareness about driving safety.
A crash simulator was in place for students to experience what it feels like to be in a collision or rollover crash, and students were able to get an idea of what it would feel like to drive drunk through the use of special glasses.
“Educating and allowing the students to experience first hand the results of driving unsafely will be more impactful than just telling teens what to do,” said Janice Marzano, program director of The Darien Teen Center.
The purpose of the campaign is not only to achieve safer teen driving habits on a daily basis, but to also target the upcoming Prom Night and summer season as well.
