In order to raise awareness among the particularly at-risk group of 15 to 19-year-olds, TCS Verkehrssicherheit and ckt gmbh are implementing a new workshop at the start of the school year as part of the "Zero to 100" teaching module at vocational and secondary schools, which has been established for several years. The teaching module will be implemented throughout Switzerland starting with the new school year. In the future, more than 15,000 vocational and secondary school students will be informed and sensitized in around 120 events per year. In collaboration with experts from the cantonal police forces and from the fields of road safety, insurance, forensic medicine and social services, the students critically examine general and specific risk factors. Through self-assessment and the recognition of their own risk factors, traffic behavior is promoted that has a direct and positive effect on road safety.
