Driver-ZED®
Improve your driving skills while sitting at your computer, not in your car, with the AAA Driver-ZED® DVD. Learn how to spot trouble before it happens. See all the risks and handle them right, and you'll score a perfect "Zero". 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.
You'll drive into 100 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.
Also included
- Driving Challenges (city, country, highway, and work zones)
- Pre-driving checklists for safe habits (Checking tire pressure, using a seat belt and monitoring the fuel gauge)
- Tips on critical topics (Driving near heavy trucks, night driving and using anti-lock brakes)
