| The tablets contain multiple videos and one interactive game which students can complete on their own. Videos cover: passing large trucks and buses safely, stopping distances of large trucks and buses, and turning radius of trucks and buses. The interactive games have several sections and challenges. The student must answer questions correctly to get a full code to successfully complete the game. |
Set-Up:
|
Items Provided:
- Tablet
- Charger
- Headphones
Set up tips:
- All cords are color-coded to the port they match with. Follow the set-up instructions included with the simulator and provided by the Regional Rep.
- When selecting the settings for the program, only focus on one or two risks at a time, so as not to overwhelm the driver with so many factors. For instance, it’s too much going on if you select alcohol-impaired driving, at night, while raining, with lots of pedestrians crossing the road.
