I am Vice President of the MBCA Educational Foundation and have recently been named chair for the Teen Driving Program for the Educational Foundation. Teenage traffic fatalities are at an all time high in our neighborhoods and across our country. Teens are not bad drivers; they just need more experience behind the wheel to know what to do when an unsafe situation occurs. That is exactly what BMW CCA Foundation’s Street Survival Schools do for teens.

Street Survival School is a one day classroom and hands-on course sponsored by Tire Rack that creates a group of exercises that replicate adverse conditions and circumstances encountered in daily driving. Street Survival provides students a safe environment in which to learn and practice proper responses.

MBCA’s Educational Foundation has partnered with BMW CCA and SCCA and will be offering our help with the Street Survival Schools across the United States. MBCAEF would like to invite you to get involved. WE NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE THIS PROGRAM SUCCESSFUL. Help will be needed in registration, tech inspection, picking up cones and instructing students. MBCA members and others interested in volunteering his or her time at any of the following schools, please contact Mary Alice Cozza or call 330-222-1106.

Please share this information and encourage others to help save a life. Thank you.
