- (1888PressRelease) November 20, 2012 - Embark Safety, the provider of Drivers Notification program - How's My Driving? and safety management solutions, has expanded its online driver training suite to include an award winning Distracted Driving: The Decisions You MakeŠ training to both its Passenger Vehicle and Heavy Truck modules.
Drivers who use hand-held devices are 4 times more likely to get into crashes serious enough to injure themselves. The most recent data available by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2010, shows that 18 percent of all police-reported crashes (fatal, injury-only and property-damage-only) involved reports of distracted driving. This translates to thousands of fatalities and over 400,000 injured people each year. The bottom line is simple- when the operator of a vehicle engages in non-essential driving activities, that person's ability to properly identify, evaluate and react to changing traffic conditions and hazards in a timely manner is greatly diminished.
Using advanced, behavioral learning techniques to affect and reinforce positive behavioral changes, The Decisions You MakeŠ challenges and motivates the learner to become an active, positive decision maker while driving to avoid unfortunate consequences. By incorporating sophisticated, state-of-the-art learning aids including a range of interactivities such as: visual games, challenges and "pop" quizzes, the learner quickly realizes his/her limitations to drive safely while attempting to perform non-essential driving activities. The lesson concludes with a call to action for the learner to commit to becoming a conscientious driver - taking responsibility for his/her actions behind the wheel.
