Drivers learn to be aware of other cars, pedestrians, signs, scenery, road markings, the instrument panel, turn signals and more. Driver ZED appeals to teens and was shown to be effective by a study conducted with students from Windsor High School, Windsor, Vermont. Crashes are the leading killer of teens 15 to 19, responsible for 1 in 3 deaths. Our teens were eager to replay this program to gain more experience, as well as to achieve a better final score. Scores indicate the quantity of driving sequences completed as well as how well the student responded.
Students can access their score at any time during play.
Full-motion, full motion MPEG 1 video, and high resolution digital still photographs. Although students do not need to steer and control the vehicle, they will feel that they are in the drivers seat. Teens can gain this knowledge without parents harping from the passenger seat. Clear speech and humorous comments add interest. Other sound effects include teen appropriate music, engine noises, creaks, squeaks and crash sounds.
