Other programs we have been involved with include “Keeping your keys” where we coordinate with RSU 9 Adult Ed, the Maine Bureau of Highway Safety and AAA on a driver awareness program for senior drivers.  It is no secret that as we age we tend to slow down which also affects reaction time while driving. 

 

This program allows drivers an opportunity to test their personal abilities to see if their reaction time has declined over time.  After the classroom portion of the class students go through a serpentine driver’s course with the Sheriff as a passenger. 

 

Students are awarded a certificate of

training after the class which if presented to their insurer, may help reduce the cost of insurance.
