Additional Techniques
Alphabet
This
technique requires the driver to recite a part of the alphabet. You instruct
the driver
to
recite the alphabet beginning with a letter other than A and stopping at a
letter other
than
Z. For example, you might say to a driver, "Recite the alphabet, beginning
with the
letter
E as in Edward and stopping with the letter P as in Paul." This divides
the driver's
attention
because the driver must concentrate to begin at an unusual starting point and
recall
where to stop.
