Fatal Vision is one strategy used to prevent drugged, drunk and distracted driving. Fatal vision goggles and golf cart create a realistic experience in which youth gain first hand information about the risk and dangers of drugged and distracted driving. Fatal Vision is one part of a county-wide effort to reduce underage drinking and drugged and distracted driving.
The Pittboro Police Department, Chatham County Sheriff's Department and the Chatham County Schools have worked together to provide this program to the every student in the Chatham County Schools that participates in driver's education.
