Experience Distracted Driving Simulator sponsored by The Allstate Foundation
The Arrive Alive Tour sponsored by The Allstate Foundation is a distracted driving education program that allows students to experience the dangers of texting while driving within the controlled environment of an automobile simulator. A real car is used to give students the most realistic of driving experiences. Participants wear virtual reality goggles and drive on a video-game like course. During the driving, a text message is sent to a phone that must be responded to while driving. ""A lot of kids are confident they can get through it flawlessly, but they end up surprised when they end up crashing,"" says Ryan Nelson, who travels to various cities and states with the simulator.
