Ford Driving Skills for Life deals with four key skill areas: speed management, space management, vehicle handling and hazard recognition. The lack of these skills has been quoted by the experts as the major cause of nearly 60 percent of vehicle crashes for newly licensed drivers aged between 16 and 19. Ford Driving Skills for Life has already reached thousands of teenagers online through interactive training and other events across the country and "Belt it Out: Sing for Safety" is a very significant event which engages the teens creatively for a great purpose.
