Wolf Administration Hosts Roundtable Discussion with Teens on Safe Driving

Representatives from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), State Police, Department of Education and local education and law enforcement representatives held a face-to-face forum at Cedar Cliff High School in New Cumberland, sharing their collective knowledge with students from Cedar Cliff and Red Land high schools to mark Teen Driver Safety Week in Pennsylvania.

"We can all do our part to make highways safer by working together to help new drivers gain valuable experience and knowledge," said PennDOT Secretary Yassmin Gramian. "Parents and teachers are an integral part of establishing a mentality of safety behind the wheel amongst teen drivers."

The forum was held to call attention to teen driver safety and share important information directly with teen drivers during the nationwide observance October 17-23. The question-and-answer format gave teens a chance to glean valuable information from knowledgeable sources they may not otherwise interact with. Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of death for teens.
