Driving Safety Simulator comes to DHS

Greetings Pioneers,

We’re excited to announce that Dearborn High School will host a Driving Safety Simulator for THE UPCOMING WEEK (April 28-May 2) to help students explore and understand the dangers of risky driving behaviors in a safe and engaging way. You will see it in front of our school. Encourage your student to sign up for a spot in the simulator using the following link or by talking to Corporal Hanson – our SRO:

What Is It?

This virtual driving experience will allow students to safely navigate scenarios involving:

  • Distracted Driving (texting, talking, eating)
  • Weather Hazards
  • Reckless Driving

Why It Matters

Car crashes are one of the leading causes of death for teens in the U.S. This simulator is a powerful way to help students:

  • Recognize and avoid dangerous behaviors
  • Learn safe driving habits before they’re behind the wheel
  • Gain confidence to make smart decisions
  • Understand real consequences—without the real risk

What Families Can Do

You play a key role in your teen’s safety. Here are a few simple ways to support this experience:

  • Start a conversation about what they learned
  • Model safe driving habits at home
  • Set family rules for car use and phone use
  • Discuss peer pressure and how to say no
