Traffic collisions are the leading cause of death of teenagers across the United States and in California. Each year, thousands of young drivers and their passengers are killed in collisions. Designed for newly licensed teen drivers and their parents, the CHP Humboldt Area is offering Start Smart, a two-hour driver safety education class that is conducted throughout the state. The free program is an interactive driver safety class for teens and their parents. During the class, officers and speakers illustrate the critical responsibilities of safe driving and collision avoidance techniques. Parents are also reminded of their responsibility to teach their new driver and model good driving behavior.
Two upcoming Start Smart classes are scheduled in Humboldt County. On Thursday, August 22nd, a Start Smart class will be held at the Humboldt Area CHP office from 6-8 p.m. On Saturday September 21st, a second Start Smart class will be held at the Humboldt Area CHP office from
10 a.m.-12 p.m. These classes are free and open to the public.
Parents and teenagers can sign up for a Start Smart class by contacting the CHP Humboldt Area office at (707) 822-5981. Reservations are required as space is limited.
Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
