DUI and Defensive Driving for Teens

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) -- It's the end of the school year, and kids are celebrating prom, graduation and the beginning of summer; and every year at this time, we see an increase in drunk driving accidents, DUIs and bad driving in general in teens.

How do we teach these kids responsibility?

KDKA AM's Larry Richert and John Shumway talk to Jim Clair, of the Ultimate Defensive Driving School, and Kathy Tress, head of the DUI Taskforce, about how they go into schools to change the thought process of teen drivers, thus changing behavior behind the wheel.

During the presentation, they show stats and high impact videos - one on texting and driving and the other on high risk behavior and the outcomes of that behavior.
