QC high school stages scenario for prom safety

Davenport North High School collaborated with the Davenport Fire and Police Departments to teach students about the consequences of drunk driving.

Students participated in a planned program that was a scenario showing teens in a car accident
caused by drunk driving. Officers and firefighters showed what life-saving measures might take place during an accident. Theater students who played roles in the program said they hope their classmates will rethink potentially dangerous choices.

Davenport Police also had a guest speaker to talk about their personal experiences with teens and drunk driving.
