| Using Kahoot, a game-based learning application, your TDS team will promote an online trivia challenge to be completed by students. These 5-question trivia challenges are available on all the top risk factors for teen drivers – distractions, nighttime driving, speeding, low seatbelt use, and impairment – plus there are also challenges that focus on pedestrian safety, bicycle safety, and safety around trains and trucks.
Each challenge provides vital information in an educational and entertaining format. Select a trivia topic that complements other activities you are doing or talk to your regional representative about which trivia challenge to use for your activity.
Please note that the laws referenced in the pedestrian and bicycle safety challenges are specific to Texas. |
