The Quincy, Mass.-based Arbella Insurance Foundation said it has relaunched its Distractology tour for an additional five years in response to the mounting issue of distracted driving and the high demand from local schools.
The company said the program, which was introduced in 2010, is one of the first to address distracted driving with young, inexperienced drivers.
The campaign features a 36-foot mobile classroom with high-tech driving simulators — originally created by the University of Massachusetts Amherst Human Performance Lab — and travels to high schools across New England. It leads students through a variety of true-to-life distracted-driving scenarios, educating participants to anticipate hidden hazards, react to the road and avoid accidents.
