Driver Education Technique
At A&M Discribed in Article
Driver education technique at
A&M was described in an article
in the May, 1959, issue of Ford
Motor Company’s Driver Educa
tion News.
The article, entitled “Talking
the Road,” was written by Dr.
Leslie V. Hawkins, associate pro
fessor of industrial education at
A&M.
Dr. Hawkins wrote that “to
impress upon the beginning driver
the necessity of ‘reading’ the road
•—or seeing what lies ahead—we
have used the technique of re
questing the students to tell us
what they see as they drive.”
As the student driver progresses
along the road or street, he de
scribes what he sees. Some ex
amples are: “Stop ' sign ahead,”
“Two pedestrians walking on the
right,” “Car parked at the curb,’
“Car approaching fast from the
rear,” “Speed limit 25 miles per
hour.”
It was explained that this tech
nique works very well in making
the student aware of the necessity
of reading the road ahead of the
car and establish the habit of ob
serving the surroundings which
might affect driving conditions.
Dr. Hawkins said this system
gives the instructor a basis upon
which to determine what the stu
dent is seeing. It will tell whether
the student is keeping his eyes
moving and observing what lies
ahead, to the sides and behind
him. Also, the instructor is able
to determine whether or not the
student is using “aim-high vision”
by how far ahead he is describing
the road.
