Objective
European proposals for common international standards for driving examinations resulted, in 1991, in compulsory written examinations as part of the driving test in all EU countries.
This proposal aims to promote common standards for safe driving training for driving instructors in European SMEs through the development and testing of an open distance learning CD-i and CD-ROM training programme. This will be designed for self-training purposes and will reach 3000 driving schools across Europe, with versions in English, French, German and Portuguese.
The project will be phased over a three-year period and involve cooperation between networks of driving schools, multimedia companies, the car industry and the Brussels-bases International Driving Tests Committee [CIECA]. CIECA and driving agencies in Germany, Portugal and Sweden will propose common standards of driver preparation for safe driving that will be tested and assesses through the networks. Feedback will allow material incorporating amendments to be produced and fully tested to ensure the effectiveness of programme content and delivery.
Impact
The project will promote the use of distance learning in SME driving schools and lead to common standards of preparation for safe driving in European member states.
