The Florida Sheriffs Association's Teen Driver Challenge (TDC) was created in 2007 to address the primary factors affecting teen drivers – speeding, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, texting while driving, and distracted driving. The program is offered at no cost to teen drivers in counties across the state and led by sheriffs’ deputies licensed as commercial driving school instructors. More than 2,000 students participate in a TDC course each year, with the demand for course participation often outweighing availability.
The program is a defensive driving course designed to educate students on the dangers of driving impaired, the importance of driving using their senses, and driving maneuvers and skills.
The course takes place over two days and consists of a classroom portion and a driving portion. Students are required to attend both dates.
