Gillett spoke to the students on teen-age driving and showed them a film in an effort to encourage safe driving by teen-agers. Being aware that teen-agers have the highest accident rate, and that insurance rates may go up from $40 or $50 to $90 or $120 when a teen-ager is allowed to drive the family car, many Florida schools are trying to improve this situa- tion with driver’s training courses, In the past year, he added, the teen-agers’ record has improved in Florida, one of the few states provement is given to the training courses and to student safety councils. Patrolman Gillett said he hoped it would not be too long before the High School here had a train- ing course.
