Instructors Needed for RTR Teen Street Survival on Sat., 13 April - Phokaioglaukos - 03-27-2013
PCA National and the Riesentöter Region are proud to support the Street Survival school, a safe-driving program designed to go beyond today’s required driver’s education and give teens the driving tools and hands-on experience to become safer, smarter drivers. We need more instrucotrs to give students in-car driving instruction on Saturday, 13 April, at Warminster Community Park in Warminster, PA. If you are available to instruct, please sign up on MotorsportReg HERE.
This is a new program for RTR and for this first event we will be cooperating with experienced organizers from the DelVal BMW CCA Chapter and the Philly Region SCCA. The death toll for 16- and 17-year-old drivers of passenger vehicles jumped 19 percent in the first half of 2012, compared with the first half of 2011. If the trend persists, it would be the second year of increased deaths for teenage drivers in this age group after eight consecutive years of decline. (STORY) Last year, over 5,000 teenagers died in motor vehicle crashes, the leading killer of American youths aged 16 to 19, accounting for more than 40 percent of fatalities in that age bracket. (STORY)
We can help.
The Street Survival school will put you in the passenger seat of a teen student’s car to drive exercises on an autocross-like course. Teen Street Survival is a great program that truly benefits the community and helps save lives. We really need your help as an experienced RTR DE instructor. It's an immensely rewarding experience for instructors, and can be life saving for students. We hope you can give your time to the program.
In addition, if you would like to help RTR in organizing future events, please let Chris Karras know at cgkarras@nazg.com or 215 360 3207 (mobile)!
If you are available to instruct, please sign up on MotorsportReg HERE. If you have any questions, contact Chris. You can also read more about the program or have a student register here: http://streetsurvival.org/.
