Hands-On Exhibits
Have you ever wondered how to educate your employees on the advantages of wearing a seatbelt or the importance of 
not drinking and driving? During this year’s School the Governors' Highway Safety Association is providing a Drinking and Driving Simulator. The NEW 53-ft, custom-built trailer includes seven interactive driving simulators offering 30 different lessons with over 240 driving scenarios. Each lesson is available in English, Spanish and French. The simulators also include 3-dimensional graphics that provide true-to-life images. In addition we will have a Seatbelt Convincer which simulates a car crash at 5mph while wearing your seat belt. These two expositions are available for you to experience. Thank you to the GHSA and Jackson County Sheriff's Department for their assistance in providing these units. You can obtain some information as well as contact information to bring These units to your group. The exhibits will be located on the parking pad adjacent to the Exposition Center. Check it out!
