Gissele Enriquez, C.C. Winn High School, December 2019 Teen of the Month

“Whenever I get in a car with my friends, I honestly worry…we are young and bound to make mistakes.” – Gissele Enriquez

Q: If you could change one thing about the way your friends drive/ride in the car, what would it be?
A: Whenever I get in a car with my friends, I honestly worry. For the reason that we are young and bound to make mistakes. They always tend to have their music playing on blast and aren’t fully focused on the road. What I would encourage them to do is have their music playing in a lower volume and have their phone turned off to be fully aware of the road and their surroundings.

Q: Why are you involved in Teens in the Driver Seat®?
