It’s Grand Theft Auto ‘53!

Students Drive Model Car Over Miniature Test Route
Better drivers result from a training machine that tells you exactly what is wrong with your driving. The machine consists of regulation steering wheel, brake and clutch pedals, accelerator and instrument panel. The roadway, white lines painted on a green canvas, moves beneath the car at speeds regulated by the accelerator. The model responds as a standard car would. Various signals are included so the driver can test his reaction time and judgment of speed and distance. The machine shows each time a driver unnecessarily touches the clutch, brake or shifts gears.
