My daughter is a teacher - Physical Education, Personal Develeopment and Health.

In one of her classes to year 10 students she gets out the playstation and runs a supermario game using a steering wheel.

The students set a best score for a stage - then go back and do it while talking on their mobile - they never get close to their high score.

She then gets them to do it while texting and the results are shocking - even the students comment that they had no idea how badly it impacted their driving.

This is how it gets addressed - educating before they even get behind the wheel of a real car. Nothing will change if you don't stop it at the source. All the advert and laws won't change a thing if people don't believe it make a difference.

These new students know it does.
No one is saying they will never TWD - but I would suggest a lot fewer of them will do it compared to if they had not done the demo.

And they all think its one of the best/most enjoyable lessons for the year - they get use a Playstation in class.
