Drunk Driving Simulator to be Demonstrated at Capitol Hill as Part of National Youth SummitOctober 2, 2000 - Advanced Exhibits will support Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and DaimlerChrysler with a demonstration of the Neon Drunk Driving Simulator for Members of the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives at Capitol Hill on October 3, 2000. The demonstration, which is part of MADD's National Youth Summit to prevent underage drinking, will give approximately 435 youth delegates along with their Members of Congress an opportunity to experience firsthand the dangers of "driving drunk" without taking a sip of alcohol by driving a specially programmed car. The Neon Drunk Driving Simulator program, produced by VSI Holdings' entertainment company Advanced Exhibits, interactively demonstrates the dangers of drinking and driving to thousands of high school students throughout the United States annually. Engineered with Advanced Exhibits' proprietary computer-activated program, the 2000 Dodge/Plymouth Neon Simulator replicates the slowed physical and mental responses of a driver at various levels of alcohol consumption producing an effect similar to a driver under the influence. In addition to the Summit, the program is touring approximately 400 venues nationwide. Since its inception in 1998, the Neon Drunk Driving Simulator has appeared at more than 3,250 locations where over 950,000 students have participated directly as either driver or passenger, and a further three million have been event spectators.
