    According to the CDC, vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death amongst teens, with a majority of these deaths accruing in work zone accidents.

    Work Zone Safe and the ATSS Foundation launched an online training program to educate young drivers on how to safely navigate work zones. The online program is free and easily accessible, providing teens with important knowledge and skills to be safe drivers. Teens who successfully complete the online course are entered into a monthly $500 educational scholarship drawing.

    This training modernizes teen driving education and empowers young drivers to drive confidently and safely and hopes to significantly increase safe driving across the nation. This program can be found on the ATSS Foundation website or Work Zone Safe’s platform.
