FAQ
Q1. How does Hazard Prediction Training (KYT) help prevent accidents?
A. Many high school students commute to school by bicycle or moped, making them a generation with a high probability of causing accidents. In Hazard Prediction Training (KYT), you can learn points to note in familiar dangerous situations, such as passing through an intersection when the traffic light is changing or riding a bicycle on a sidewalk with many pedestrians, and can improve your ability to check for safety and predict hazards.
Q2. What kind of safe action will high school students be able to take by learning in Hazard Prediction Training (KYT)?
A. They can learn the dangers of making assumptions such as that vehicles turning left will give way, that pedestrians will continue walking in the same direction, and that there will be no vehicles approaching at intersections with poor visibility, and they can cultivate the ability to predict the risk of accidents. This will help them develop the habit of checking for safety and help prevent accidents.
