Shiv Aradhna Mp3 Songs Download. Fort Bragg is expanding a driver improvement program with hopes of cutting down on aggressive and dangerous driving on post.

Officials at Fort Bragg in N.C., say they’re expanding a driver improvement program aimed at cutting down on aggressive and dangerous driving on post. The Fayetteville Observer reports that starting Sept. 1, service members could lose their on-post driving privileges for a year or more if they fail to complete a one-day class following certain traffic violations or if they become repeat offenders. John Cervenka, Fort Bragg garrison’s senior enlisted leader, said the program is meant to address what’s termed an “unacceptably high rate of citation” among Fort Bragg drivers. Post spokeswoman Christina Douglas said the expanded program also comes in response to an uptick in speeding citations on post, which is attributed to a crackdown on speeding by Fort Bragg law enforcement.

By Drew Brooks Military editor Fort Bragg is expanding a driver improvement program with hopes of cutting down on aggressive and dangerous driving on post. Starting Sept.

1, service members could lose their on-post driving privileges for a year or more if they fail to complete a one-day class following certain traffic violations or if they become repeat offenders. John Cervenka, Fort Bragg garrison's senior enlisted leader, said the program is meant to address an 'unacceptably high rate of citation' among Fort Bragg drivers.

'We want to curb an aggressive behavior,' Cervenka said. While Fort Bragg drivers are not drastically different from those seen in nearby Fayetteville, Cervenka said officials hope the expanded Driver Improvement Training program will reduce accidents on Fort Bragg, whose roads have become increasingly busy during continued growth over more than a decade. The expanded program also comes in response to an uptick in speeding citations on post, which is attributed to a crackdown on speeding by Fort Bragg law enforcement, a post spokeswoman, Christina Douglas, said. 'The Driver Improvement Training program is being implemented to curb aggressive driving practices and ultimately reduce motor vehicle accidents and unsafe driving behavior on post,' Douglas said.

'Aggressive driving behavior is a contributing factor for an unacceptably high amount of traffic accidents on post. We have seen an uptick in the number of accidents within the past three years.'

Cervenka said the safety of soldiers, families and others who work or live on post was paramount to Fort Bragg leaders. The program is not new, he said, but would be adjusted to better serve the community. Currently, the program requires a day-long course if a Department of Defense employee receives certain traffic violations while driving a government vehicle. However, Cervenka said even those requirements were not equally enforced. 'We had this program, but we really weren't meeting the demand,' he said. The classes, held once a month, were rarely filled.

At the same time, post officials recognized problems with speeding and wrecks that should be easily avoided. After looking at five years worth of traffic violation data, officials decided to 'evolve' their contract with the driver improvement program. Now, active-duty troops who are caught speeding 15 mph or more above the speed limit, who are at fault in a traffic accident that causes injury or requires a tow, or who are ticketed for failure to stop at a traffic control device will be required to attend the course.

Troops will need to do so within 90 days or have their driving privileges suspended for a year. Any violation within a year's time following the class also will result in a one-year suspension. Repeat offenders could see their driving privileges suspended for five years, Cervenka said. He said officials belive at least 84 service members each month will be required to attend the course. The program will apply to all ranks on Fort Bragg, from the lowest private to any general officer. Cervenka said the expanded program will not create additional costs for Fort Bragg. He said officials may expand or alter the program based on the results they see.
