  The goal of the Cypress Creek VFD Driver Safety Awareness Program is to increase awareness of the deadly effects that alcohol, drugs and poor judgement have on a person's ability to drive in a safe manner. The program utilizes a powerful visual aid, the Driver Safety Awareness Trailer, that shows the grim results of driving while under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

The Driver Safety Awareness Trailer consists of a vehicle involved in a fatal accident on February 6, 2002, mounted on a tandem axle trailer. The vehicle is mounted on the trailer in it's final position which was on it's side and wrapped around a tree. The trailer allows this powerful visual aid to be towed to area schools and state functions such as MADD or DARE events.

The Cypress Creek VFD Fire Safety Education program provides students with fire safety information and skills, while also giving students a chance to practice those skills in a realistic controlled environment.

The Fire Safety House is a mobile travel trailer that is a scaled-down, "kid-sized", two story house. Students are able to walk through a kitchen, living room and bedroom, spotting fire hazards and practice simple methods of eliminating potentially dangerous situations. Students will get to feel a "hot door", locate an emergency escape route and "escape" by exiting through a window via a ladder as the Fire House fills with a completely harmless, non toxic smoke. All of these activities are performed under the close guidance of firefighters.
