Our New Driver

Joshua is taking a driving class today. The BMW 328i is what he's driving. The course is offered by the non-profit organization, Driver's Edge. The organization is run by a race car driver who was fed up with young driver statistics. Indeed, the number one killer of young people 16 - 2o is car crashes. The founder offers classes to young people which teach them skills to avoid a crash as well as controlling and minimizing a safety compromising situation. The classes are taught by race car drivers in controlled environments. (You can see the race track surrounding the car in the picture.) One skill Joshua is compelled to demonstrate today is the ability to create a skid and then correct it. I am hopeful that the class will equip him with the ability to drive safer and be accident free for life.

I think he must be thrilled to get to drive a luxury car!
