National Teen Drive Safety Week

The Lackawanna County Commissioners proclaimed October 20-26 National Teen Driver Week, calling attention to the fact that distracted driving causes accidents and fatalities. In 2018, Lackawanna County had 287 teen driver accidents, one of which resulted in death. National statistics show that October is the month of the greatest number of teenage accidents for those in the 15-18 years old range. Parents are urged to speak to their children about safe driving and to impress upon them to always wear a seat belt.
