Skid wheels improve driving skills of law officers

The Hall County Sheriff’s Office is now using the Easydrift training system to help improve driving skills throughout the department. The tough plastic wheel cover slips over the existing tires.

0919training3 — The Hall County Sheriff’s Office is now using the Easydrift training system to help improve driving skills throughout the department. The tough plastic wheel cover slips over the existing tires.

For Hall County Sheriff’s Office training director Lt. Michael Myers, Wednesday was another afternoon behind the wheel burning rubber. The exercise in drifting didn’t require a lot of space, or even speed — just two attachable rings. “It’s very safe, you don’t have to go more than 20 miles per hour,” Myers said.
