Take the
Wheel
Here’s what is in the“Take the Wheel”package:Since its founding in 1902, AAA has worked to make
our roadways as safe as possible. That’s why in1935, we wrote the world’s first Driver’s Educationtextbook, Sportsmanlike Driving.
Today’s greatly updated version, Responsible Driving, is used by high schools nationwide.
And that’s why we offer you “Take the Wheel,”AAA’s complete textbook and in-vehicle instructionalprogram designed for parents to teach their teens to drive.
Oklahoma’s graduated driver licensing law allowsteen agers who complete a Driver’s Education course,including this AAA parent-taught “Take the Wheel”program, to receive an unrestricted driver’s license atan earlier age (16 1/2) than students who choose tonot take Driver’s Education (17 1/2).
Everything you need is included in the parent pack-age, all at one low price. As a not-for-profit organiza-tion, AAA can concentrate on providing high qualitymaterials while holding your costs down.
Traffic crashes are the No. 1 cause of death andinjury for people 15–20. This is a grim indicator ofhow much varied, long-term training is required before safe driving skills are developed.
“How to Drive”This is AAA’s valuable safety and vehicle textbook
to help beginning drivers manage risk effectively.Now in its 14th edition (2009), How to Driveemphasizes perception, decision-making and the latest concepts in driver safety:
Highway elements that influence risk Managing risk How to search for and respond
to traffic Safety restraints Interacting with other roadway
users Traffic signs, signals and markings How to respond to emergencies The effects of alcohol, drugs, fatigue
and emotions on driver performance.
