No Second Chances

The years in high school can be the best times; you build relationships and memories that can last a lifetime. It’s also about doing a lot of growing up, and people start trusting you to make the right choices. You’re old enough to drive - and it’s exciting because it’s about freedom and doing your own thing. But the sad truth is, traffic accidents kill and injure more high school students than any other age group.

Tragically, A 15-year-old Lake County girl was killed this past Saturday when she was a passenger in a car with three other teens. The 2007 Acura she was in lost control a drove into the path of oncoming traffic. Alcohol was reported not to be a factor.

At Gordon & Doner, we have produced a video for teens which teaches them that their actions can have horrible consequences while driving a motor vehicle. If you would like to schedule a presentation for teen drivers using this video, please call 561-333-3333.
