Ward Melville Students Attend Safety Program

The tragic results that poor decisions can have on motor vehicle drivers and passengers was the foundation for a recent eye-opening program offered to Ward Melville High School students.

The event, called Driving Equation Teen Presentation, focused on the importance of wearing a seat belt, as well as the negatives of distracted driving and driving under the influence. Throughout the event, presenter Al Ferrari visually and verbally demonstrated the quick turn these actions can take and that life can change seven seconds after impact.

The program was open to all health classes and was delivered by on behalf of EAC Network through a grant from State Farm.
