QUATTRO DE MAYO TEEN DRIVING EVENT - SPONSORED BY SHELL
This weekend, the Golden Gate Chapter is hosting Quattro de Mayo, a driving clinic for teenagers. We're proud and happy to have strong sponsorship from Shell Oil.
Teenagers are group of drivers that are statisticly most likely to have accidents, and these accidents often cause harm to the teenagers themselves, and to others. We at the Audi Club recognize the need to do our part in educating these teenage drivers, and through a generous donation from SHELL, we are able to host the first of several teen driving clinics being held accross the US.
Please do your part to speak to teenagers that you know, and encourage them and their parents to participate in this event. We truly believe that it is up to us to help these young people become better drivers, keeping our friends and family safe and healthy.
