Watch the TeenDrive365 Virtual Field Trip video. This video provides an inside look at the innovation and teamwork that goes into designing Toyota vehicles, featuring insights from engineers, mechanics, and safety experts who explore the science behind safe driving. After watching the video, complete the Teen Knowledge Activity from the TeenDrive365 program.
Demonstrate best practices while occupying a vehicle (e.g., distracted driving, impaired driving, seat belt safety, appropriate seating arrangement, and pedestrians).
Describe how the presence of certain elements increases or decreases the risk of injury (seat belt decreases, distracted driving increases).
Create an interactive glossary of distracted driving terms and concepts. Use this glossary to develop an informative pamphlet on safe driving techniques. In small groups, plan to distribute these pamphlets to peers in an approved location.
Review the interactive glossaries and pamphlets created by students to assess their understanding of key vehicle safety concepts and their ability to communicate this information effectively.
