THE STORY OF NHRA DRAG RACER, DOUG HERBERT

Iconic drag racer, Doug Herbert talks racing and shares his story with the Petersen on how he founded B.R.A.K.E.S.

When NHRA drag racing star Doug Herbert lost his two young sons, Jon and James, in a tragic highway collision in January of 2008, his grief led to resolve, inspiring a mission to help prevent other families from experiencing similar heartbreak.

Herbert wasted no time in putting his mission into motion, creating B.R.A.K.E.S. (Be Responsible and Keep Everyone Safe), a 501(c)3 charity organization that provides FREE, hands-on advanced driver training through its Teen Pro-Active Driving School.
