With a two-hour investment of time and the assistance of the Suwanee Police Department, parents can help give their teen drivers fresh attitudes and more confidence behind the wheel.
The Suwanee Police Department’s Georgia Teens Ride with PRIDE (Parents Reducing Injuries and Driver Error) program will be offered, in cooperation with the Georgia Traffic Injury Prevention Institute, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Thursday, June 30, at the Suwanee Police Department, 373 Buford Highway.
This free course makes parents/guardians more aware of their own driving behaviors, assists parents in helping their teens to become safe drivers, and offers strategies for required supervised practice driving time. PRIDE is not a hands-on, “how-to” program.
Class space is limited and advanced registration is required. A parent is required to accompany participating teens. To download an application, visit www.suwanee.com or contact Ofc. Elias Casanas at elias@suwanee.com or 770-904-7612. The registration deadline is June 20.
