The Pre-Prom at Beech Grove High School The Fire Department simulates what happens at a car accident scene, in the school parking lot, that is televised live throughout the school. Teens get a realistic look at the possible outcome if they choose to drink and drive. Someone is getting cut out of a wrecked car, then they are being packaged and put into the ambulance. This gives the teens something to think about as they go to the Prom the next evening.
