The Levy County Sheriff’s Office, Community Relations
Division, is offering a Teen Driver Improvement Program to all Levy County
students who have a current Operators License or Learners Permit or who are
about to get their Learners Permit.
The goal of this program is to educate the teen drivers of Levy County
of the dangers of aggressive driving, distracted driving, impaired driving, and
to reinforce the benefits of seatbelt use. These four issues have been found to
be major causes of teen involved crashes, injuries and fatalities. This program
is free of cost and is 4 hours in
duration. This program consists of classroom instruction, videos, power point
presentations and hands-on time during which the students will drive golf carts
through a course to learn first hand the dangers of their choices they make
while driving. This is a graphic presentation that will show students the human
consequences of their driving choices. Parent waivers are required due to the
graphic nature of the presentation. Waivers are available online at www.levyso.com, and then click on the Teen
Driver Improvement Icon on left side of screen. All students will be required
to pre-register for the class by calling Lt. Sean Mullins or Sgt. Max Long at
352-486-5111 ext 276 or via e-mail smullins@levyso.com
or mlong@levyso.com. This class has a minimum
of 5 students for the class to take place so these dates are tentative. ALL CLASSES
