We are so excited to announce our series partnership with the Addiction Prevention Coalition! APC works hard in the community to educate about addiction issues particularly among teens, while the TRIP Lab focuses on safe driving among teens. Our first topic is ma*****na. Do not get behind the wheel after taking any sort of substance that can impair your faculties.

According to research studies, ma*****na can slow your reaction time, impair judgment of distance, and decrease coordination, which are essential when you’re behind the wheel of a vehicle.
