Why Choose The Safety Place Young Driver Safety Program? Louisiana currently has one of the highest fatality rates in the country when it comes to motor vehicle crashes. Research also proves that our state’s moderate to severe injury rate is even more alarming than the death rate. Young, novice drivers are significantly over represented in fatal crashes, and there is a strong need to reinforce federal and state highway safety initiatives in our community in order to decrease motor vehicle crashes and SAVE LIVES! Crashes not only take lives, they also cost billions each year, increase insurance rates, and leave families WRECKED!

The Ready Set Drive Program is designed to educate young drivers about the negative effects of distracted driving, underage drinking, and impaired driving in an effort to initiate positive behavior change in regards to occupant protection and traffic safety. The Safety Place offers innovative approaches to working with young drivers, while facilitating the use of problem solving skills to evaluate driving situations.
