Multiple organizations from across Virginia are working together to save lives and make roadways safer through teen driver education.
The nonprofit BRAKES, which stands for Be Responsible And Keep Everyone Safe, hosted their teen driver safety training program for the first time at Richmond Raceway.
Both teens and parents were able to get behind the wheel and practice safe driving skills with professionals during the event.
