Samenvatting
It is suggested that total driver development can be achieved only when the training curriculum includes behind-the-wheel instruction in accident avoidance and recovery, and an example is offered in the training of State Patrol officers conducted by the Road Atlanta Driver Development Center for the state of Georgia. An analysis is made of the instructional methods which were successful in reducing the Patrol's total accident rate 41%, and initiating a reduction in annual premiums for insurance.
