As part of the Child Passenger Safety Program's comprehensive public information activities, a driver education in-service program was developed to integrate a child passenger safety curriculum unit into driver education classes. Four major school systems were selected for the in-service training. It was felt that driver education classes offered an excellent means for informing and influencing young student drivers in the area of child passenger safety. In addition to the teacher training sessions, materials for teaching child passenger safety were developed. Research and evaluation activities were conducted to assure that these materials would be appropriate for use by driver education instructors. Input from driver education instructors indicated that self-instructional materials would be more practical because of the unique classroom situation in driver education. As a result of research findings and instructor suggestions, self-instructional child passenger safety curriculum units were distributed to the four major school systems.
