Seminole County Community Traffic Safety Team Mock DUI Program

The following Webinar is an overview of a program in Seminole County, Florida that is dedicated to educating high school students of the harsh consequences related to drinking and driving.

While the program is shared with local high school students, adult organizations are frequently invited to attend scheduled events.

And I didn’t drink and drive, even though the others said I should. And then the party was ending and everyone was driving out of sight.I got into the car, Mom, I thought I’d get home in one piece because of the way you raised me-so responsible and sweet………….
