The MHS Drivers Ed class recently had Kristin Iverson, manager of the Coles County Farm Bureau and Ryan Hill, a local farmer come and share with our students about sharing the road with farm implements. They shared the importance of being patient around farm equipment or any slow-moving vehicle.
We have been very fortunate this semester to have two other guest speakers. Kari Paxton from the Liberty Chapter of A.B.A.T.E. spoke about sharing the road with motorcycles. Veron James from Union Pacific spoke about the importance of railroad crossing safety.
We are grateful to have these individuals and organizations share with our MHS Driver Education students!
