Driving deaths are preventable. 48% of passengers killed are not wearing seatbelts, 35% of teen driver fatalities are related to speeding and about 14% of all car crashes involve distracted driving including those with cell phone use. The costs associated with these crashes are more than just monetary and are felt by other people in addition to the crash victims. This includes employers, family, friends and many others. Let’s keep moving forward to eliminate these statistics.
NSC is proud of our Instructors for making our world a safer place by teaching Defensive Driving Courses. Now is your chance to identify those Instructors that really stand out. Shine the light on those who go above and beyond to help move the mission of NSC forward every single day.!
