Defensive Driving Tactics (1964)

**Defensive Driving Tactics** (1964, 12 min) is a safety education film that dramatizes the dangers posed by so-called “offender-type drivers.” Through a series of vignettes, it illustrates reckless behaviors on the road and highlights the consequences of aggressive or careless driving. A staged road test reveals that a driver who rushed to save a few minutes committed 138 traffic violations—proving that speed and shortcuts aren’t worth the risk. Produced by Charles Cahill and Associates, the film promotes defensive driving as the smarter, safer approach behind the wheel.
