Body Movement in Crash- Balance Discovery Activity

Ask students to demonstrate what it feels like to be in a car with a driver who:

  • slams on the brake
  • takes off too fast
  • makes a turn or a lane change too fast or too sharp

Make the point that failing to control the balance of a vehicle is a culturally common high-risk behavior.  Managing vehicle balance is at the core of low-risk driving skills and can prevent many problems.

Mirrors- Discuss their importance and how to properly adjust

Mirror Adjustments PPT
