SADD and Teens in the Driver Seat Join Forces for National Teen Driver Safety Week
MORGANTON, N.C. - ncarol.com -- (Students Against Destructive Decisions) & Teens in the Driver Seat announced a new partnership sharing resources and expertise to reduce teen crashes, injuries, and fatalities.

In 2019, 1,602 young drivers (age 15-20) died in traffic crashes on our nation's roads 81 of those young drivers were from Colorado.
With funding from the Colorado Department of Transportation, SADD and Teens in the Driver Seat® (TDS) will use evidence-based programs, best practices in youth engagement, and community mobilization to save lives. Together, the organizations will increase youth participation in the roadway, build leadership skills in student members, and work to change the culture around roadway safety throughout the state.
