Classes Scheduled for Spanish-speaking Residents

 

Little Rock’s Spanish-speaking residents will learn about driving rules and regulations during informational sessions to be held in February.

Working Together in the Community has scheduled two sessions, Feb. 11 and 18 at the Southwest Community Center at 6401 Baseline Road. 

Residents are invited to take part in the free sessions, which will cover such topics as:

  • Motor vehicle and traffic laws in Arkansas
  • Road signs and traffic signals
  • Safe driving skills


The classes will be taught in Spanish by Officer Jacob Tobler of the Little Rock Police Department.

Refreshments and childcare will be provided.

The Working Together in the Community group consists of community members, business owners, government officials, and others who want to unite Little Rock’s communities and make neighborhoods better.

Over the past two years, the group has organized Guatemalan mobile consulate visits, which helped hundreds of people in Arkansas obtain documents from their home country. More consulate visits with other countries are being planned for this year as well.

For more information about the driving classes, contact Officer Tobler at jtobler@littlerock.gov or 501-414-9152.
