Drivers Ed or DE) is an instructional speed event that is characterized by continuous lap driving with passing to be permitted as allowed by these rules. <strong>PCA DRIVERS EDUCATION IS NOT RACING.<\/strong> There shall be no official timing as the event is intended as instructional only, with no competition. There are no award points assigned and no trophies associated with DE events. While non-competitive, safety equipment is still required, and all cars entered in the event must have fenders attached to the vehicle body at all four corners. For convertibles or cabriolets, any make of car delivered with factory installed roll over protection meets the minimum standards for PCA DE events. In these cars, we recommend the soft-top be in the up position or the hard top installed. If the top is in the down position, an SFI and\/or FIA approved arm restraint system must be used. If a car does not have factory installed roll over protection, a roll bar or roll cage must be installed, which meets the \u201cbroomstick\u201d rule (the driver\u2019s helmeted head is below a bar placed on top of the roll bar and windshield). Design, installation and materials of roll bars or cages and their installation must meet PCA Club Racing specifications, All Targa tops must be installed unless there is additional roll over protection. Both the driver and passenger must have the same restraint system. All sunroofs must be in the closed position. The windshield alone is not considered to be factory roll over protection.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-51lgc-d543d7a9835a0fe7c9823aac716cce37\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-51lgc-d543d7a9835a0fe7c9823aac716cce37{\nheight:25px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-51lgc-d543d7a9835a0fe7c9823aac716cce37 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-knuyz4nk-aefb611f238091e346a08e2df7f4c874 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>Drivers Education Chair<\/h3>\n<p>The Pocono Region does not currently have a Drivers Education Chairperson or Committee.
