As in the past, this program continues to stress the principles of defensive driving, as well as adding new visual aids and materials.
The instructor for the course is Doug Sommer of Pekin, who was a safety educator with COUNTRY Financial for over 30 years.
The Defensive Driving Course is being cosponsored by DeKalb County Farm Bureau and the COUNTRY Financial agency in DeKalb County.
Reservations are required and class size is limited. Cost to participate is $25 and includes course fees, materials, and a hearty lunch both days.
