A
golf cart is used on a specially designed driving
course with the Fatal Vision® goggles to show the
student how it feels to “drive” under the influence
and the results of that driving experience. The
course is taught by certified EMS, Fire, and Law
enforcement instructors who have experienced first
hand, the tragic results of teens driving under the
influence. The instructors are able to relate their
life experiences to the participants. The Fatal
Vision® course can be delivered in 2 hour, 4 hour,
and 6 hour classes depending on the needs of the
organization or school requesting the course.
Fatal Vision® is a training tool used
to vividly demonstrate the concept of impairment and
the dangers of impaired driving.
Alcohol and other drugs have an
effect on the brain that results in a variety of
impairments. The Fatal Vision® Goggles distort
vision and cause behaviors that are similar to
behaviors exhibited by someone under the influence
of alcohol or other drugs.
Hundreds of law enforcement personnel across the
country use the Fatal Vision® Goggles. Many of these
professionals have used B.A.C. (Blood Alcohol
Concentration) to describe the level of impairment
exhibited by someone wearing Fatal Vision® Goggles.
It was in their opinion that the behavior exhibited
by someone wearing the Silver Label Fatal Vision®
goggles was similar to behavior exhibited by someone
with a B.A.C. of .17 to .20. The general opinion
shared by many of these professionals is that the
Silver Label Fatal Vision® goggles provide a high
level of impairment, while the Bronze Label Fatal
Vision® goggles provide a moderate level of
impairment. We have adopted the use of B.A.C. to
make it easy to describe the impairing effect
produced by the Fatal Vision® goggle
Fatal Reflections 2.0 software shows
both DUI and BUI scenarios that tell a story of six
people in a car crash or boating tragedy. We take a
digital photo of a student's face, open it in Fatal
Reflections and select a crash scenario. The picture
of the student’s face is dramatically transformed to
show the injuries resulting from the crash scenario
selected. We type in the student's name and the
story becomes personal.
The scenarios include a complete
story about each subject including the impact on
family, finances and the subject's future. Each
story contains a description of the events leading
up to the crash and description of crash. Shows the
facial injuries associated with the scenario we
select. Lists all of the injuries sustained by the
victim. Lists the medical, legal and financial
consequences of the crash.
