Mock Car Crash Reminds Students of the Dangers of Driving Drunk

Students gathered in the bleachers at Wednesday morning to watch local , fire and EMS participate in a mock car crash. The presentation showed students what could happen in a drunk driving accident. The simulation took place just three days before the high school’s prom.

“I don’t ever want that call,” Principal Joseph Mueller said to the students after the presentation. He noted that he has received such a call as principal twice before, reflecting on the grief felt in the community. He urged the students to use good judgment, not just on prom weekend, but also during graduation, over the summer, after football games—all the time.

“Life is about choices,” Mueller said. “And we need you to make good choices.”
