Earlier this week, the National Guard brought in a fleet of go-karts for their impaired driving simulation. The goggles worn by the students allow participants to experience, in a controlled environment, the potential consequences of impaired driving and how dangerous it can be. 10th-12th grade students got to take their turns on the karts and attempted to run a relay wearing the goggles. Students got to see fellow classmates out of control, missing turns, accelerating, and swerving. These observations can provide a similar experience that comes from sitting behind the wheel. Whether students are driving a simulator or watching on the sidelines, it was an eye-opening experience for everyone involved. Photo Submitted
