From Tire Review

The Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) has created a downloadable tire care course aimed at teen drivers and driver’s education instructors. Developed in conjunction with Young Minds Inspired, the web-based course is available on RMA’s www.betiresmart.com site.

More than 16,000 high-school driver education teachers, high-school auto mechanic instructors and commercial driving instructors were notified of the course’s availability. Those responding by Oct. 1 can receive a free tire gauge to help them demonstrate how to check tire pressure.

RMA also offers free Be Tire Smart brochures to instructors.

RMA said the course is based on its Tire Smart – Play Your PART tire care education program, and includes a teacher’s guide, activity sheets, reproducible student worksheets and a Be Tire Smart Wall Poster.
