Since April of 2006 ABATE of Clermont County has been going into driver's
education classes at Jeff's Driving School to teach students about being aware
of motorcycles on the roadways. As of Jan. 31, 2008, we have presented the
program to 1501 students. This is hopefully 1501 more pairs of eyes that will
be watching out for us instead of running over us.
This is a good start, but there are many students out there we haven't reached
yet. We NEED more volunteers to help spread the word! Even if your not
comfortable speaking in front of a group, we can still use your support. It is
important for these students to see us as people they can relate to,
regardless of how we dress or choose to get around. Our personal presence says
more than any video alone can.
Here is a current schedule for the Driver's Ed classes. If anyone would like
to come and see how the class flows or is interested in getting more involved
with the Driver's Ed Program, please feel free to call me and we can work
something out. I can be reached @ 513-460-4661 or email me @ cmehile@aol.com.
Thank you,
