On September 22, Anaelle Surprise was driving home with two other passengers on Sunrise Highway in the middle of a rainstorm at 2 A.M. Around that time she veered off the road and crashed into a nearby tree. Thankfully she was driving in the outermost lane and did not implicate any other cars in the crash. She was intoxicated at the time of the crash with her blood alcohol content at 0.092, which is .00736 over 0.08 when you are legally unable to drive a vehicle. Paramedics arrived quickly to the scene and brought her and her passengers to Southside hospital. Luckily, the driver and her passengers did not sustain any injuries more serious than a mild concussion, scratches, and bruises. It is reported that the three were

Throughout my high school career I always knew what I wanted to do. that was to become an airline pilot. With this dream in mind I had no way of paying for all of the certifications that go along with it. Then I was presented with the opportunity to go to Tri-County Technical Center(TCTC) for their commercial truck driving program. Now throughout the last semester I have obtained my Class B licence and working on my class A permit. That brings us to present day and my project. My project consists of learning about the inner workings of our detachable trailer at TCTC. When I say inner workings I mean, how to pre trip the trailer, how to load and unload, and attach and detach both sections. I will have a video in my slide show showing the the product
In 2013, more than 2,500 teenagers died in the United States from motor vehicle crash injuries. Such injuries are by far the leading public health problem for young people 13-19 years old (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety [IIHS], 2014). Drivers are not the only ones at risk. Teenagers who are passengers in others vehicles make up a startling 87% of the fatality statistic. Lack of driving experience, disregard for traffic laws, and quick access to full driving privileges contribute to teen death. To reduce teen driving fatalities, successful completion of driver education classes provided by public and private schools should be mandatory for all teenagers prior to receiving their driving permit.
Dangerous driving habits result in the death of thousands of people each year; however, by taking steps to educate young drivers on dangerous habits behind the wheel; countless lives could be saved.
My best friend, Christina is a very dangerous driver due to her lack of experience, safety, and distractions. She is going to Florida State University next year. Everyone in my town is worried for her, because she is not the best driver. We live in small community in Pennsylvania with one main road, and everyone knows about Christina’s driving skills. Christina is a hazardous driver due the number of tickets, accidents, and problems she has caused on the road. She is very distracted by a number of things such as, phone usage, music, and food. Christina’s lack of experience plays a crucial part in her dangerous driving. She does not practice the rules of the road; therefore, she causes accidents.
Teens should not be permitted to drive until they are 18 years old. They should be able to drive on a temporary permit when they are 16 years old and use it until they turn 18 years old. This permit would allow them to drive only during daylight hours and with a parent/guardian. This would enable the young drivers to become more experienced. The eight hours of drivers training with your instructor is not enough. These teens need to get a feel for the road and learn to drive defensively. If you do not know how to operate a vehicle responsibly, it could be used as a deadly weapon. These young drivers are hurting themselves and other innocent people, because of their lack of experience and their irresponsibility.
Teens need to be taught that driving is a task that is complex and demanding. Parents know how much experience a young driver has, and they know exactly how inconvenient it is when they have to drive with their teen everywhere while they have their permit. Teens tend to cause most traffic accidents in adults’ eyes. They are not experienced yet, and often fail to pay attention to others on the road. They often think of a car as being some type of toy, but they do not know how powerful it really is. The driver education programs must be strengthened in order to make sure that students really have safer habits, behind the wheel experience, and by having a better understanding of all the laws on the road.
Teen driving is unsafe and dangerous, teen driving is the leading cause of teenage deaths in the United States with more than 5,000 teens dying a year. 17 year old Weston Griggs, killed himself and the 2 passengers he had in his car. But, this accident was no accident. Weston was going 70 mph in a 40 mph speed zone. The issue in this story is that young drivers like Weston, inexperienced and full of adrenaline are just hurting them selves and others by getting behind the wheel at such a young age. Teens between the ages 15 through 17 do not belong on the road. Outrageous amounts of teens are dying every year and these numbers are not changing, so why keep them on the road? Teen driving in the United States have three main problems
Traffic crashes are the leading cause of death for teens and young adults. More than 5,000 young people die every year in car crashes and thousands more are injured. Drivers who are 16 years old are more than 20 times as likely to have a crash, as are other drivers. There are two main reasons why teens are at a higher for being in a car crash and lack of driving experience and their tendency to take risks while driving. Teens drive faster and do not control the car as well as more experienced drivers. Their judgment in traffic is often insufficient to avoid a crash. In addition, teens do most of their driving at night, which can be even more difficult. Standard driver's education classes include 30 hours of classroom teaching and 6 hours of behind-the-wheel training. This is not enough time to fully train a new driver. Teen drivers are more like to be influence by peers and other stresses and distractions. This can lead to reckless driving behaviors such as speeding, driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol, and not wearing safety belts. There is no safe amount that you can drink and still drive. Even one drink can influence your driving offences. “Nowadays, drunk driving has become driving while intoxicated, driving while impaired, driving while under the influence, operating while under the influence (impaired, intoxicated, or whatever), and in many
