UPS Delivers Safe Driving Expertise to Boys & Girls Clubs

On Nov. 15, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta and UPS are offering local Club members a comprehensive teen safe driving course – the UPS Road Code -- that incorporates UPS’s world-class safe-driving methods.

Teen driving accidents are the leading cause of adolescent deaths in America (1 in 3 teen deaths), and young people in Georgia often don’t have the driving skills they need to stay safe behind the wheel.
