As part of their senior project, a group of North Oldham High School students recently hosted a two-day simulation of a fatal drunk-driving accident.

Caitlin Hagan, Jacob Grady and Olivia Cleary worked together on a project that brought in several local agencies to show other students the results an accident due to drinking and driving can cause. On the first day of the simulation, students witnessed police and rescuers at the scene of a mock DUI crash. Senior Allison Olive portrayed a student fatally injured in the crash.
