Details

A four-part driver's education series designed to help teenagers become safer, more responsible drivers. Fast-paced video and a contemporary soundtrack acknowledge the fun and freedom of driving, but each program also emphasizes the responsibility that comes with a license. Interviews with experts and computer animation get beyond the basics to explore the mechanics, physics, psychology, and biology of driving, while footage from real accident scenes and interviews with police officers and accident victims show how careless driving can lead to serious trouble. A 1997 KET production.
