Derek Stewart

My job responsibilities

I supervise the Driver Education program at FLVS and work on its continual improvement to help students reduce their risk on the roadway.

Why I joined the Coalition

My mission is to ensure that all teen drivers in Florida have access to high quality Driver Education and driver training. The Florida Teen Safe Driving Coalition shares these values, and as a member, I can serve the state to reduce roadway risk.

Interests outside of work

You’ll often find me on the golf course, but more often than not, out on the pickleball court.

Favorite song as a teenager

Most any song by the Beatles.

First car

1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle.

One tip for new teen drivers

The road is a place for space. Keep space all around your vehicle and constantly scan for changes.
