The North Dakota Department of Transportation will be holding the “Ford Driving Skills for Life” event Saturday, June 9, at the Armed Forces Reserve Center in Fargo. The event is open to teenage drivers between the ages of 14 and 18 who have a valid learner’s permit or driver’s license. Two sessions of the “Ford Driving Skills for Life” event will be held, the first will be from 8 a.m. to noon and the second will run from 1 to 5 p.m.

The “Ford Driving Skills for Life” program is a teen driver safety program, allowing participants to be involved in multiple traffic safety activities. Participants will have the opportunity to drive through a challenging course with the Cass County Sheriff‘s deputies and experience a variety of interactive simulators.
