Pembroke students given dramatic reminder to drive safely on prom night

By Howard B. Owens

Pembroke, Indian Falls, Corfu and Darien fire departments all participated in a demonstration this morning at Pembroke Town Park for the benefit of the students at Pembroke High School of what happens at a serious motor-vehicle accident.

The demonstration recreates an accident scene in which four students on a prom night are seriously injured -- and one is killed -- because of drinking and driving, or inattention or speeding.

The demonstration is meant to remind students to drive safely on prom night.
