With preparation for the prom
season here, parents — thoughts arc
again turning to teen safe driving.
Car crashes are of such epidemic
proportion- that this year the World
Health Organization has even made
road safety its primary concern.
Of all road users, young drivers
continue to have the highest crash
record of any age group. In fact car
crashes remain the leading cause of
permanent injury and death in youth
throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Recognizing this epidemic, Gary
Direnfeld. a social worker,
developed the I Promise Program —
teen safe driving initiative when his
son came of driving age. The
program consists of a parent-youth
safe driving contract and used to
include a rear window decal with a
toll-free number that encouraged
reports on drivers, just as seen on the
back of transport trucks.
The idea. while sounding great
didn't fly.
"We couldn't help parents get over
the suspicion that police or insurers
might be notified or that false reports
wouldn't be a .problem," says
Direnfeld. With several hundred
youths on the program, their call
centre only received one call and
there were . no false reports. "But.
perception is everything," he says
and so based on his experience he
modified the program. "With
thousands of dollars of research and
are experience, we learned that
parents really valued the Parent-
Youth Safe Driving Contract and
wanted that most," Direnfeld
reports. So now it's available from
the website and for free.
While prom safety is vital.
Direnfeld is .encouraging _parents to
consider their young driver's road
safety throughout the year and not.
just at prom season. The statistics
bear him out. Teens do die
throughout the year and the summer
is actually the season with the
highest fatality numbers.
His program was only available in
the U.S. and Canada, but as a result
of his changes, it is now available
worldwide.
Check out his Parent-Youth Safe
Driving Contract. It's free and
available from his website:
www.ipromiseprogram.com "We
want youths to return home safely
every time they use the car. We want
all families to make the-safe driving
promise", says. Direnfeld.
In memory
In recognition of Earth Day and in honour of a former
teacher, Dianne van Vliet, a tree was planted at Brussels
Public School last week by teacher, Andrew Weber, left,
and Mrs. van .Vliet's husband John. In the background is
