Navman and Driver Reviver team up to beat another road hazard. Bored Kids.

When you are on the road these holidays, one potential hazard is the distraction of bored children in the car; another is driver fatigue and not taking a regular break. So Navman and Driver Reviver have teamed up to give the young, and young at heart, hours of fun with the MY-Spy game cards. The MY-Spy cards will be available free at Driver Reviver locations around Australia from December 2011 to February 2012, while stocks last.

Drivers can pick up a deck of MY-SPY game cards while taking a break with a free cup of tea or coffee and biscuit, at Driver Reviver sites open right across Australia.

The MY-SPY deck of 24 cards has been designed so that kids can colour in the pictures as well as make up a puzzle from the pieces.

How to Play MY-SPY

1.     Shuffle the cards and place them face down between the players.

2.     Each player takes a card from the top of the pile and must ‘spy’ the object in real life.

3.     Once a player has spied the object, they can then pick up another card from the pile and spy the next object.

4.     This continues until all cards have been picked up.

5.     Players keep the cards of things they have spied.

6.     The player with the most cards at the end of the game is the winner.

“While the MY-SPY cards are fun, road safety is no laughing matter for us.  We want to support programmes that contribute positively to road safety.  Working with Driver Reviver is especially appropriate as every year 30 per cent of all fatalities on country roads are caused by driver fatigue.  It is really important for people to take a break every two hours when driving continuously which is why Navman units come with Driver Fatigue alerts, which flash a reminder to take a break after you have been driving continuously for two hours,” says Wendy Hammond, marketing manager, Navman Technology.
