It is so nice to get reviews like this one that I received yesterday!

Hi Mr. Reedy,

I want to thank you for the driving lessons for Olivia and the class back in the fall.

Olivia is so careful driving- she is driving herself to school everyday and slowly branching out to drive other places here in town on her own.

She learned so much through the class and then all the one-on-one driving sessions! I don’t worry about her driving anymore- thank you

Thank you!

Lori

Today was a reminder about how important driver education is.
- When the lights are off, treat it as a stop sign.
- Yellow flashing light? Proceed with caution.
- Red flashing light? Stop sign.
- Chaotic moment? Slow down, stay back.

This is very unfortunate. Illinois Avenue in Oak Ridge is ranked the number one most dangerous road in Tennessee. The unprotected left turn onto Lafayette has to be changed. A “left on green arrow only” would help tremendously. Left arrows at the Dutch Bros and RMS intersections would also help reduce fatal crashes. Please share and speak with local leaders about fixing these issues. This is a state highway, but our local leaders can request a review and discussion.
