Driving Contest Keeps Copperas Cove Teens Safe On The Road

By Wendy Sledd

Copperas Cove High School junior Elise Fuselier receives her driver’s license in April. Until then, she is driving using her permit with a licensed driver in the car. Thanks to a competition at her school, Elise is ensuring that her driving habits are the safest possible.

“When she’s driving with us, she always makes sure that her phone is out of site,” said Elise’s mother, Yashika Fuselier. “She often scolds us about having our phones close by when we are driving. She doesn’t like any of us having it close by.”
