Petty Driving logoRichard Petty Driving Experience Launches National Safe Driving Program in Partnership with Clemson University.

Richard Petty Driving Experience (RPDE), in collaboration with Clemson University's Automotive Safety Research Institute (ASRI) today announced the launch of its national Safe Driving Program intended to prevent or reduce highway crashes by high-risk adolescent and young adult participants by measurably improving driver skills, attitudes, knowledge and behavior.

The research-based Safe Driving Program, initially designed for high-risk drivers aged 16 to 25, will teach safe driving skills and safety education to participants through a classroom setting and on-track experiences by placing students in hazardous driving situations in a controlled and safe environment.

Young drivers can reserve their place in the Safe Driving Program by calling 1-800-BE-PETTY.
