Jefferson West High School SADD brought ThinkFast Interactive to the high school on Thursday, February 19th. Thanks to a grant from KDOT/Kansas SAFE (Seatbelts Are For Everyone), ThinkFast visited Jefferson West to promote teen driver safety and cover Kansas' rules, regulations, and driving penalties, while providing current information on speeding, racing, and fatalities. It was fun, competitive, engaging, and reinforced a lot of information about being SAFE on the road.
