abstract="The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) partnered with the American Road and Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) to develop and launch a safety campaign called &quot;Turning Point: Roadway Work Zone Safety for New Drivers&quot;. Information came from teenage drivers themselves, driving instructors, other educators, parents, traffic safety advocates, transportation agencies and the road construction industry. The completed campaign includes an interactive CD-ROM training tool, a safety video, a Web site and collateral products. The interactive CD-ROM, &quot;Turning Point: Work Zones from Behind the Wheel,&quot; helps young motorists recognize possible hazards and puts them in challenging driving situations. Accessible to all stakeholders, the &quot;Turning Point&quot; Web site provides an ongoing clearinghouse for materials related to work zone safety. ARTBA and FHWA also developed supplemental products including the searchable database &quot;Work Zone Safety Awareness and Training Resources&quot; and an 11-minute video on DVD called &quot;Turning Point: Some Decisions Last a Lifetime.&quot; Initial results confirm a positive feedback.<p />",
