The Lee County Sheriff’s Office is doing its part to help your teen drive safely.

So, if you have a teen driver with a permit or a license that has more than 60 hours of driving experience, the sheriff’s office is recommending that you sign them up for their two-day course.

The two-day course includes classroom and driving instruction. The course is designed to teach your teens safe driving practices, learn vehicle dynamics, and teach them responsible decision making skills.lcso teen driving challenge

One of Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno’s initiatives is to ensure the safety of all in Lee County but most importantly the youth.

Classes are beginning January 29 and 30 and usually take place two weekends per month until November. Friday’s class is 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday’s class is 7:30 a.m. to noon. All classes will be held at the Lee County Sheriff’s Office Miromar Community Outreach Center located at 10801 Corkscrew Road, Estero, FL 33928.
