W? ALIVE AT 25 TEACHES: l Young people are more likely to be hurt or killed in a vehicle crash; l Inexperience, distractions, and peer pressure cause unique driving hazards; l Speeding, alcohol, and "party drugs" greatly increase their risk of injury or death; l As a driver or passenger, they can greatly reduce their risk by taking control; l Committing to changing their driving behavior makes personal, legal and financial sense. The course: Proven effective, Alive at 25 is a highly interactive four-hour program which encourages young drivers between the ages of 14* and 24 to take responsibility for their driving behavior. Skill practices and on-the-spot defensive driving techniques help change bravado to confidence. Alive at 25 instructors use personal examples and even humor to get their point across. They use workbook exercises, interactive media segments, group discussions, role-playing and short lectures to help young drivers develop convictions and strategies that will keep them safer on the road. *14-year-olds are eligible for the the Wyoming Highway Patrol's Alive at 25 program only if he/she is eligible for a "hardship" driver's license. Thank you to all of the businesses in Wyoming that support the Alive at 25 program.
