WASHINGTON
D.C. - Heading into one of the deadliest weekends of the year, millions
of Americans will get a timely opportunity to improve their safe driving
skills through a unique, nationwide television broadcast.
More
than 500 Americans lose their lives on the road each Labor Day weekend,
a statistic highway safety advocates hope to combat by giving drivers an
entertaining way to improve their driving knowledge and test their
driving judgments before they get on the road.
"Drive
for Life: The National Safe Driving Test"
- the centerpiece of one of the most ambitious driver safety initiatives
ever undertaken - will enable drivers across America to take an
entertaining multiple choice test that pits their driving know-how
against common road hazards and situations. Hosted by FOX Sports anchor
Chris Myers, the program engagingly raises the level of awareness of
drivers of all ages and abilities.
The
broadcast will premiere in late August on select network affiliate
stations. Follow this link
for directory of stations in your area. The program will broadcast
nationally September 1 at 7 p.m. Eastern/Pacific Time and 6 p.m.
Mountain/Central Time on the iTV television network (formerly PAX).
Drive
for Life is an initiative of Volvo Cars of North America, the National
Association of Police Organizations and the National Sheriffs’
Association, with technical support from the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration.
The
iTV television network (formerly PAX) provides family-oriented
programming and owns about 150 stations nationwide.
