Daniel Edwards, Chisum High School, Sept. 2018

Meet Daniel from Chisum High School in Chisum, Texas.

Daniel EdwardsWho is your favorite celebrity?
Luke Bryant

What are your hobbies?
I like to play Video Games and help others

What do you want to be when you are older?
I want to be a petroleum engineer so I can make lots of money.

If you could change one thing about the way your friends drive or ride in the car, what would it be?
That they’d stop acting like their car is the fastest, and stop drinking alcohol because they think it is cool. These are things that lead to car crashes. They are my friends and I don’t want to see them hurt.

Why are you involved in Teens in the Driver Seat®?
To help teens understand that when you are driving you should pay attention to the road and not try to show off.
