Following years of continued success, the Bre- vard County Sheriff’s Office is continuing its teen driver safety programs, know as Teen Driver Challenge and Brevard S.T.O.P.P.E.D. Teen Driver Challenge is a Statewide Florida Sheriff’s Association program and is certified by the Department of Highway Safety Motor Vehi- cles. The Teen Driver Challenge is for Brevard County students, who have a restricted permit or driver’s license and is taught by Sheriff’s deputies. Each class consists of two training days. The first is a four-hour block of classroom instruc- tion, and the next day, an eight-hour day of vehicle operations at the Brevard Community Col- lege Palm Bay Driving Range, using their own vehicles. It is recommended that students use the vehicle they will most likely be driving. Upon successful completion of the course, students graduate with a certificate of completion. Certificates may be presented to auto insurance companies for a possible reduction in premium. During this course, students learn techniques on vehicle control and crash avoid- ance.

Topics include: Hundreds of teens from throughout the county have completed the Teen Driver • Knowing your vehicle • Using your senses Challenge program, which is a Statewide Florida Sheriff’s Association program • Vehicle dynamics and is certified by the Department of Highway Safety Motor Vehicles. • Safe-driving habits • Alcohol and driving • Aggressive driving “ As a parent of a teen driver, the Brevard S.T.O.P.P.E.D. ents of teenage drivers.

Identity theft is the fastest-growing crime in the world and has the ability to impact each and every one of us. Ten years ago, during “Crime Pre- vention” discussions, we informed citizens that identity theft was the fastest-growing crime in the state.
