Apprentices are one of the most endangered group of people in road traffic. Many of them own a driver's licence already, some have their own cars or motorcycles. The German road safety board, in association with the Accident Prevention & Insurance Association, started a campaign at vocational schools. The young people can share experiences they made in dangerous situations and tell others what happened and why, if they have suffered an accident already. A brochure helps the teachers to integrate this subject matter into their lessons. Embedded into the normal lessons, this can increase awareness for dangers in road traffic. Topics are "Drugs and alcohol", taffic rules and environment protection.
