Gretna students receive lesson in driving safety
March 3, 2010 | Virginia News
On Feb. 18, a figure dressed in black from head to toe walked the halls of Gretna High School. Carrying a scythe, Amber Moser, who portrayed the grim reaper, "claimed" 25 of the 650 students at Gretna.
The Grim Reaper Day was sponsored by the school's Youth of Virginia Speak Out About Traffic Safety (YOVASO) organization in an effort to promote car safety.
"I hope this helps people decide not to drink and drive, not to speed and to wear their seat belts," Moser, the organization's president, said. "Hopefully what we are doing is making them see the reality of unsafe driving."
