BOX 3837 • FORT PIERCE, FLORIDA 34948 • (407) 4654530 <br />Mr. Gary Wheeler, Chairman <br />Indian River County Commission <br />1840 25th Street <br />Vero Beach, F1 32960 <br />Dear Mr. Wheeler: <br />92021Zc2�? <br />Ma�ea- <br />aR <br />+ <br />989 <br />March 16, 198:!441404440 <br />9gi <br />' This letter is in reference to Senate Bill 94, House Bill 322, <br />which essentially requires four hours of substance abuse edu- <br />cation and safety education for drivers license applicants <br />who have never been licensed in any jurisdiction. The target <br />population is the younger driver, however, the education would <br />positively effect any aged driver. <br />From a treatment and education perspective, I have been involved <br />with the DUI Program for over 15 years. At the conclusion of <br />DUI classes, the students are asked to evaluate the program and <br />give suggestions regarding how we might improve. Each class <br />of students has a large per cent who write that they wish they <br />had been provided the information at an earlier age. They <br />recommend offering the education in high school or suggest <br />having alcohol/drug ed as a pre -requisite to licensing. <br />28 <br />
