SUMMARY: Mississippi ranks number one in car wreck fatalities involving teenagers. Bill 2695 may combat the issue by making driver's education classes mandatory in public high schools. First-time driver's license applicants must complete these classes to be issued a license. Students at Tupelo High School feel the bill is necessary due to the high number of car accidents. The classes provide valuable knowledge for safe driving. Students will receive a completion certificate, enabling them to obtain a driver's license. The bill is deemed important by a driver's ed teacher. More insights on the bill will be shared on WTV 89 News.
