Abstract

Experience the thrill of driving on your PC. Full-screen, full-motion, real-life interactive video puts you in the driver’s seat. You’ll use your eyes and brain to spot trouble before it happens. Spot all the risks and handle them right, and you’ll score a perfect 100. But watch out — it’s harder than you think. Realistic display shows you three views of the action — even the rear-view and side mirrors. The driver-ZED® CD-ROM puts you into more than 80 live-action situations — the equivalent of several years of actual driving. You’ll face everything from a child chasing a ball into the street to dangerous two-lane passing. You’ll learn how to see danger by actually experiencing it on your computer instead of behind the wheel. Does driver-ZED® do any good? driver-ZED® has now been evaluated under real driving conditions and has been shown to produce statistically significant improvements in the risk management skills of young teen drivers. Visit our webpage www.driverZED.org to see the results.

NOTE: Installaton of the program on Windows 2000 or XP requires using a patch. The patch is available at http://www.driverzed.org/nt_patch.cfm. Simply download the patch, place the CD-ROM in your computer’s CD-ROM drive, and execute the patch. (Author/publisher)
