'Age Well Drive Smart' Seminars Coming to Daly City, Other Peninsula Cities

REDWOOD CITY, CA — San Mateo County Supervisor Adrienne J. Tissier announces three upcoming seminars aimed at aiding older drivers. The next seminar will be held at the Foster City Recreation Center on Thursday, September 29, 2016 from 9:00 A.M. - 12:00 P.M.

"For most people it has been years since they’ve read the DMV Handbook. This seminar is a refresher course on the rules of the road with a focus on issues faced by older drivers. The goal is to assist the older driver with updated information and knowledge to aid them in continuing to drive safely as they age," said Supervisor Tissier.

The Age Well Drive Smart seminar includes a presentation by the California Highway Patrol on safe driving tips including a self-evaluation, Q&A with California Department of Motor Vehicles Senior Driver Ombudsman and a discussion with SamTrans about transportation alternatives.

The free three-hour seminars formerly known as the Older Driver Traffic Safety Seminars are held through a partnership with the California Highway Patrol, the Office of San Mateo County Supervisor Adrienne Tissier, the San Mateo County Commission on Aging and the California Department of Motor Vehicles.

Residents must RSVP in advance by calling the Office of Supervisor Adrienne Tissier at 650-363-4572. Space is limited and refreshment will be served.
