Fait will be providing valuable information to ADTSEA on the “Safe
Trailering” Driver Education Program that U-Haul developed in cooperation with
ADTSEA.
The central purpose of the “Safe
Trailering” Driver Education Program is to provide basic, practical trailering
information and guidelines for beginning drivers and first-time trailer/towing
individuals. People who tow a trailer only occasionally will benefit from a
review of the information contained in these guidelines.
These guidelines are free, and are
adaptable to adult-education programs, college-level courses and for teacher
training, as well as for high school driver-education programs. They may be used as
provided or modified for state (provincial) departments of education, colleges
and universities, local school systems and other organizations which share the
leadership responsibility for traffic-safety education.
Attendees of the conference’s trade show will be provided with a copy of
the “Safe Trailering” teacher's manual, student brochure and DVD.
A free copy of the “Safe Trailering” Guidelines can be downloaded
