Simulated Impaired Driving Experience SIDNE/Teen Safe Driving Program
The Safe Mobility Project is pleased to offer SIDNE, a go-cart teaching tool that delivers impaired and distracted driving experiences. SIDNE demonstrates the impact of alcohol, marijuana, drowsiness, and distractions on a person's driving abilities.
Participants feel the simulated impact of impairment on their ability to drive. They also experience riding in a vehicle when the driver's ability to operate the vehicle is impaired.
The Safe Mobility Program also offers Teen Safe Driving Program (TSDP), a multifaceted program that can be offered in varying settings. The program includes the following activities:
PowerPoint presentation
An interactive learning experience
Anonymous student reporting about dangerous experience in the cars they are riding in
Virtual Reality (VR) distracted driving headsets
