Drive Aware

Every time we get in our cars we’re potentially putting our lives at risk. Being aware of the car we drive and understanding our
car’s safety technology and how it works can greatly improve our driving safety.

 

This program is designed to make us more aware of the cars we drive, and in so doing, make us more conscious of what we’re
doing when we’re behind the wheel.
