A RESOURCE CURRICULUM IN DRIVER AND TRAFFIC SAFETY EDUCATION: A CRITIQUE

THE RESOURCE CURRICULUM SPONSORED BY THE AUTOMOTIVE SAFETY FOUNDATION IS THE BEST EFFORT TO DATE TO PRESENT DRIVER EDUCATION AS A BODY OF LEGITIMATE CONTENT, WITHOUT THE FAULTS CHARACTERISTIC OF TEXTS AND WORKBOOKS IN THIS FIELD. IT SHOULD ALSO BE USEFUL IN DEVELOPING PROGRAMS OF STUDY IN DRIVER EDUCATION. SUGGESTIONS FOR STRENGTHENING THE RESOURCE CURRICULUM INCLUDE BETTER BIBLIOGRAPHY, MORE CONSISTENT TERMINOLOGY, MORE CAREFUL FACTUAL ACCURACY, BETTER WRITING STYLE AND FORMAT. /HSL/
