KeyBank is bringing a free program to the Toledo area, including Owens Community College, to improve teen driving skills and raise awareness about the importance of proper training for young drivers.
Key to Safe Teen Driving is in its fifth year and will include five events in four Ohio cities. The events will all be held in June, which kicks off the summer driving season and the three worst months for teen accidents.
Locally, the program will be held June 18 at the Center for Emergency Preparedness at Owens Community College.
The program is free and open to any teen with a valid driving permit or license and access to a vehicle. AAA of Northwest Ohio will also be at the event providing free vehicle safety inspections.
Key to Safe Teen Driving uses professional instructors from the Mid-Ohio School and is designed to improve teen driving skills.
