Members of the Kirtland Air Force Base, N.M. in the Air Force Safety Center’s Ground Safety Division have recently received the National Safety Council’s Outstanding Effort award for training young adult drivers. This particular foundation has received accolades from all over for their “sincerity of heart” in training young adult drivers in the art of defensive driving and keeping them safe and sound behind the wheel of their personal vehicles as well as that of Air Force vehicles.
Every year, NSC officials conduct strict reviews of all the defensive driving training programs and the number of students being trained. The “Alive at 25” program is dedicated for Airmen, instructors and instructor trainers and has made a significant impact on the lives of many.
Because of the dedicated efforts and commitment of the ground safety division personnel, more than 5,000 Airmen, 250 instructors and 6 instructor trainers have been trained since 2008.
Defensive driving courses are extremely important whether for Air Force personnel or whether for civilians. Taking the time out to train yourself in the art of defensive driving can not only save your life behind the wheel, but can save that of other’s as well.
