Postponed – CHP Offering Free Driver Safety Classes for Teens, Seniors

OAKHURST — The California Highway Patrol will be offering two upcoming driver safety classes — one for seniors and one for teens.

CHP will be conducting an “Age Well” driving class on Saturday, March 28 at 10 a.m. This free two-hour class is designed to educate adults on the effects that aging can have on their driving, and how to minimize those effects safely and effectively.

CHP’s “Start Smart” class for teen drivers will take place on Saturday, March 28 at 1:30 p.m. The class is for teenagers just learning to drive, or any teen that wants to better their driving ability. Parents are encouraged to attend this class with their children. No actual driving is required for this class, making it the perfect fit for teens that have not yet started the licensing process.

CHP will continue to provide these classes to the public at no cost and encourages local residents to take advantage of this opportunity to improve their driving skills.

Call the Oakhurst CHP office at (559) 658-6590 to reserve your seat today.

Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
