The DeSoto County Sheriff's Office is offering teen drivers a course in July to help them refine their skills.
The course is free and for drivers aged 15 to 19 with a valid learner's permit or driver's license. The program is made for teens with at least six months of driving experience. It offers hands-on training through a challenging obstacle course and teaches essential skills for various driving conditions.
To secure your teen's spot, you must apply. Applications can be picked up at the sheriff's office lobby located at 208 E. Cypress St. Arcadia, FL 34266.
Completed applications are due by Friday, July 4. Submit applications by contacting Lieutenant Tribble at 863-491-6722 or ntribble@sheriffdesotofl.gov.
