Knoxville Drivers Education students got a first-hand look at the Knoxville Fire and Rescue, the Knoxville Police Department and Mercy One in action. The three agencies partnered recently to put on an extrication demonstration for the class. Fire Chief Jim Mitchell spoke to the class of about 50 prior to moving to the rear parking lot at the high school. He talked about seatbelt use, and spoke about how it is important for drivers – especially new drivers – to always be aware of what’s going on on the road, and how critical it is to avoid distracted driving.
