Now registering for fall and winter break classes. The 30 hour class and six hours of driving is only $475 and at the conclusion of the course your student can take the Driving Test with us. One thing that sets our program apart is that we only allow students ages 14 to 25 in our classroom and we charge much less than our competitors. Please reach out if you have any questions. www.thedrivingcenter.org

Today was a reminder about how important driver education is.
- When the lights are off, treat it as a stop sign.
- Yellow flashing light? Proceed with caution.
- Red flashing light? Stop sign.
- Chaotic moment? Slow down, stay back.

This is very unfortunate. Illinois Avenue in Oak Ridge is ranked the number one most dangerous road in Tennessee. The unprotected left turn onto Lafayette has to be changed. A “left on green arrow only” would help tremendously. Left arrows at the Dutch Bros and RMS intersections would also help reduce fatal crashes. Please share and speak with local leaders about fixing these issues. This is a state highway, but our local leaders can request a review and discussion.
