Vital training at their most vulnerable moment
Cognitive training plays a vital role in student driver development.
The human brain is not fully developed until the early 20’s. The last part to develop is the lobes of prefrontal cortex. The area of the brain that controls impulses, calms emotions, provides an understanding of the consequences of behaviour and allows reasoned, logical and rational decision-making.
Most student drivers start learning to drive well before their brains have fully developed. Cognitive immaturity and driver inexperience make for a hazardous cocktail. According to statistics, young drivers between the ages of 18 and 24 are most likely to be involved in car accidents during their first two years on the road. Since driving is such a complex behavior involving a wide range of skills all working simultaneously, it is not unreasonable to expect that it requires special training.
People of all ages who are learning how to drive find CogniFit New Driver™ an effective way to become and remain safe and skillful drivers throughout their lives.
