Description

 
A drive to the mall should never be a race, but it does require mental alertness, physical coordination, and respect for every other driver on the road. This 3-part program provides a good foundation for safety-oriented driving education.
 
NASCAR winner David Reutimann shares his expertise in all those areas as host of this dynamic, highly informative program, which emphasizes that driving can be a fun, positive experience; that it is a privilege, not a right; and that the most important piece of driving equipment is between the ears.
 
Correlates to National Health Education Standards: Achieving Health Literacy; Joint Committee for National School Health Education and the American Cancer Society; and National Educational Technology Standards.
