Driving Safety Training For Young Drivers
SAFETY AWARENESS TRAINING
Today’s media has desensitized many of our young drivers to the dangers associated with driving. Due to Calspan’s expertise in the fields of collision research & causation and automotive crash testing, we are frequently called on to provide driving safety speakers, statistics, and live crash demonstrations.
SAFETY AWARENESS PROGRAMS CAPABILITIES/FEATURES
One series of driving safety events that aptly reflects Calspan’s Safety Awareness Programs involves 3,000 high school students from 22 schools from 5 counties, who were able to witness our team execute “live” 35-mph t-bone collisions. We set up the facility, prepare the vehicles and execute two crash events per day for 10 days.
Following the crashes, a pre-recorded 911 call is played, then police, EMS and fire rescue respond.
