Top Driver Offers Solution to Increase in Auto Accidents

    NEW YORK, April 14 -- The Insurance Institute for Highway
Safety's recent report on the increase in deaths among young drivers comes as
no surprise to Top Driver, Inc., the company responsible for revolutionizing
the driver education industry.
    The driving force behind Top Driver's high-tech, state-of-the-art approach
to driving education was borne from similar statistics issued in recent years
and the alarming trend that young drivers were dying in large numbers on our
nation's highways.
    "This is another example of how new drivers need the maximum driver
training and learn to become defensive, safer drivers," said Morton C.
Goldberg, co-chairman of Top Driver, Inc.  "Hopefully, by taking the Top
Driver courses available, the number of crashes can be reduced."
    Officials from Top Driver, which intends to open 200 driver education
centers across the country, are available to comment on the report, its
ramifications, and potential solutions.
    Top Driver, sponsored by Chevrolet and MetLife Auto, and endorsed by SADD
(Students Against Destructive Driving), has made it possible to provide
today's young drivers with the latest driving techniques and technologies
developed by the nation's leading authorities.
    The driver education specialists now use Chevrolet vehicles in all
locations.  And, in each driver education center, MetLife Auto provides
certified agents authorized to offer up to 20 percent discounts for three
years to those who complete Top Driver courses.
    If interested in seeking comment from Top Driver officials on the report
by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, contact Michael Cherenson of
The Cherenson Group, at 973-992-7800.
