Teens love video games. We have a free traffic/road sign test on my companies website which helps in driver's ed but not nearly as fun as a video game. We're concerned that 1 out of 3 people fail our simple road sign test. We have a high percentage of people who believe it's OK to drive the maximum posted speed limit even in bad weather conditions. More education is needed. MA What a decent concept. Teens love video games.

It is supposed to help them to develop better awareness of hazards and learn from your expertise.
