South Dakota high school students may now enter this year’s Lesson Learned teen safe driving campaign, where they can win $10,000 for themselves and another $10,000 for a school-sponsored activity or program of their choice.
Lesson Learned is in its eighth year and is appropriately timed with this spring’s driver education classes. It is sponsored by the South Dakota Office of Highway Safety and the South Dakota Broadcasters Association, which provides the prize money.
The entry period begins on March 18 and runs through April 30. To participate, students must be between 14 and 19 years of age and complete a three-question safe driving quiz at: https://drivesafesd.com/lesson-learned. Once completed, their names will be entered into the drawing. The website also tracks participation rates of South Dakota schools.
Last year’s $10,000 winner was Robbie Sealey, a freshman at O’Gorman High School in Sioux Falls. His school also received a $10,000 award.
The South Dakota Office of Highway Safety is an agency of the state Department of Public Safety.
