Every year close to 40,000 people die in traffic related accidents. The cost of these accidents exceeds $72 billion dollars and results in 1.7 million disabling injuries.Today's vehicles are safer than ever. Today's highways are safer than they have ever been, and seat belt usage is higher than it has ever been, yet vehicle collisions, death and injury still plague our highways.The greatest single factor to prevent vehicle collisions is a competent, qualified, trained driver. This video program, Driver Awareness, has been developed to make drivers more aware of their driving environment. It is designed to re-acquaint and reinforce defensive driving techniques. The video shows a series of hazardous situations that appear on the screen for just a few seconds. The drivers watch the scene and see if they can determine what the hazard is and what they can do to avoid it. They then mark their answers on a score sheet which is graded by the instructor. Once graded, the Instructor will have greater insight to the driver's weaknesses or strengths in the following areas:

Searching Skills
Identifying Hazards
Predicting What the Hazard May Do
Execution - Driver's response to the Hazard

Once a driver's weakness is determined, the Instructor or Driver Trainer can then tailor a training program designed to improve the driver's weaknesses, thus improving the driver's defensive driving skills. The complete program includes:

Driver Awareness Video - 35 minutes
Instructor Manual
Driver Score Sheets (duplicate as needed)
Attendance Record
Instructor Score Sheet
