| Seniors Safety Coordinator Beth George |
Bridgewater Police and Chester RCMP are teaming up to give seniors more confidence behind the wheel. The "55 Alive" driving course is a training program developed by the Canada Safety Council and works to improve awareness and adjust driving skills. Seniors Safety Coordinator, Beth George, says they'll discuss issues like traffic hazards and laws, new technology and correcting bad driving habits. The program is free to seniors 65 years of age or older, who have a valid Nova Scotia drivers license and have never taken a safe driving program before. The six-hour classroom-based course will be held at the Pleasantville Fire Hall on October 12 from 9am until 4pm.
