A Message from the American Driver Traffic Safety Education Association
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ADTSEA encourages all programs which choose to conduct courses to enact procedures to help ensure the health and safety of instructors, students and staff, including:
➢ Proactively and confidentially request that students with signs of a fever, coughing and/or shortness of breath to stay home. Students exhibiting symptoms should be confidentially asked to return home.
➢ We encourage programs to consider a flexible policy for rescheduling students.
➢ Keep “social distancing” between students when teaching in the classroom. Our recommendation is a maximum of two students at each 6 or 8 ft. table. Keep a minimum of 3 ft. between students, as recommended by the CDC.
➢ Do not joke about the Corona virus. You don’t know if one of your students knows someone with the virus. Keep it serious if the topic comes up.
➢ As always, avoid physical contact with students. During these times students may be hyper-sensitive to handshakes, so do not extend your hand to welcome them.
➢ Require students to wash hands before and after Behind the Wheel sessions.
➢ Have disposable sanitizing wipes available. Wipe down tables, door handles, restroom door handle, sink handles, steering wheels, seatbelts, gearshifts, keys etc. before and after class. Encourage frequent bathroom breaks for proper handwashing.
➢ Have alcohol-based hand sanitizer available in the classroom and in the vehicle for you and your students.
➢ Check frequently for updates from local and federal government agencies/organizations
Additional information can be obtained from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World
Health Organization (WHO), including steps to limit the spread of COVID-19.
As always, the health, safety and well-being of our members and community comes first!
