Members of the Delaware City Fire Company joined other Fire Service Leaders in attending the "Holiday Safe Driving Forum" hosted by Congressman Michael N. Castle at the Christiana Hospital. Congressman Castle has been a leading advocate in raising awareness about safe driving and the Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) Program in the State of Delaware. Now along with Representative Tim Bishop (D-NY), Congressman Castle has introduced the "The Safe Teen and Novice Driver Uniform Protection Act of 2009". Know as the STANDUP Act, this law would establish minimum requirements for State's GDL Laws, similar to what the State of Delaware already has in place. DVFA President Kevin Wilson was one of several to speak at the forum, applauding the efforts of Congressman Castle and the other advocates in attendance and thanked Congressman Castle for his continued support of the Delaware Fire Service. Attending on behalf of Delaware City were President Wally Poppe, 2nd Vice President Mike McMichael and Past President Jasper Lakey.
