    Before Prom this week, my department participated in a school district wide MOCK MVC put on for the high school students. An "MVC" stands for "Motor Vehicle Collision". The mock crash was part of a 2 hour walk-through presentation for the kids. Im happy to report Prom was last night, and there wasn't a single accident in the district.

    Seems like these are done everywhere now. Just about every little town around here had one before prom and if they help a little, great!

    great post! i know here the kids are not allowed to drive to the school. once they are dropped off they all get on a bus. before getting on the bus they are ALL given breathalizers. they then go to prom and before they hop back on the bus another breath test is given. anyone caught is not allowed on the bus and must be picked up from the police station by a parent or guardian. greatest thing i've ever heard of !

    Did you hit up any of those HS girls for those digits? I know you did, you fox you.
