Ford Driving Skills for Life FREE Teen Driver Training (Dulles Airport Purple Lot)

Ford Driving Skills for Life (DSFL) seeks to
address the main cause of car crashes involving teenagers – inexperience. Two days of free hands-on training begin October 12 and 13 at Dulles International
Airport’s Purple Lot. This event is FREE and OPEN TO
THE PUBLIC. Parents can sign their teens up for one of
these sessions at www.drivingskillsforlife.com.



The program, designed by a panel of safety
experts, will focus on building the skills of young drivers in several key
areas. The program will demonstrate the dangerous effects of distractions in
the car like texting while driving or carrying too many passengers. Teens will
also learn how to steer a car safely out of a slide. The exercises will put
students in real-world driving scenarios in a controlled
environment so they are equipped with knowledge that could save their life in
the future.
