WYOMING TEENS DISCOVER DRINKING, DRIVING AND YOU

The Wyoming Safety Council and the Wyoming Highway Patrol developed a plan to combat the problem of teenage traffic fatalities due to driving under the influence of alcohol. Their plan involved presenting the National Safety Council's two-hour alcohol supplement to the Defensive Driving Course, entitled "Drinking, Driving, and You," to all high school seniors during the coming school year. This article presents their plan of action, including a survey to determine whether there was sufficient interest on the part of school administrators to go ahead with the project, and their accomplishments during the 1982-1983 school year.
