		<description><![CDATA[There are many predictions, a.k.a. guesses, in life, aren’t there? But, sometimes the facts tell a different story. Driving, for instance. (You knew it was coming, right?) If you are a teen, you have some very harsh facts to face every time you get into a car and, unfortunately, the odds are not in your favor.

The main fact working against you is your inexperience. Driving is a skill. Think of yourself as an apprentice in a job you will be doing the rest of your life. Your inexperience along with the major dangers make your odds even worse.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month. Sort of funny isn’t it? “Distraction awareness” - an oxymoron, like “expect the unexpected” and “almost exactly.” But, sometimes we do need reminders to the distractions that take our focus from being safe. I received an email from a co-worker who was at an entertainment complex. You know those places that have miniature golf, batting cages, games and other fun stuff. This one had a go-kart track and while waiting in line he was watching the racers zoom around the curvy track. He then noticed a teen, about 14 or so, slow down dramatically on a curve. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You’re a great driver, right? You feel like you’re in control and wrecks only happen with other drivers who aren’t as great behind the wheel as you are. Don’t most drivers feel this way? We are all a bit egotistical when it comes to how we drive.

So let’s say it’s true. You are always safe, obey every traffic law, are never distracted and never place yourself or others at risk. That’s great, but the fact is, every time you get into a vehicle, you are at risk, whether driving across a parking lot or on a long road trip. Things happen which you have no control over and your last defense is a seat belt, which is why it is so important. Here are some facts for you to know.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite education and awareness, a lot of people are still driving under the influence. In 2007, over 1.43 million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics. This means you’ll likely encounter drivers who shouldn’t be on the road. Here are some tips on recognizing possible impairment, what to do if you find yourself driving near one and how to report it. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Canna Cola is launching a new line of colas, scheduled to hit Colorado this month. But, these aren’t normal sugary sodas that will compete with Mountain Dew and Dr. Pepper; they are infused with THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the chemical found in marijuana. The soda is in bright bottles displaying cartoon-like characters and illustrations, have names such as Sour Diesel and Grape Ape and promise 12 mind blowing ounces.]]></description>

Most teens and parents are unaware of the top five dangers of teen driving: driving at night; speeding and street racing; distractions, such as cell phones/texting and too many teen passengers; low seat belt use; and alcohol use.]]></description>
