Teen Driving Course Offered by Powder Springs Police

From the Powder Springs Police Department:

Saving teenage driver’s lives one block at a time is just one goal of the Powder Springs Police Department, which is hosting its third, two-hour University of Georgia P.R.I.D.E. seminar free of charge  to help Cobb County parents prepare their 14-, 15-, and 16-year-olds to drive.    

Most parents don’t feel prepared to supervise a new teen driver behind the wheel. But parental involvement is key to reducing teen crashes and fatalities. Teens want the practice time so they can get their license, but need to know how to communicate with their nervous parents.

The course will be offered Dec. 12 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Powder Springs Police Department, 1114 Richard D. Sailors Pkwy.

A teen and at least one parent or guardian must register to attend. You can obtain a registration form at the police department, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., or you can download a form here. 

Email completed registration forms to jjmatthews@cityofpowdersprings.org, or turn it in at the police department front desk. All registration forms should be submitted by noon on Dec. 6.
