Abstract

Taking driver education in district Norway often means high cost, absence from school, and reduced quality in driver education. In 2006, the Norwegian Ministry of Transport and Communications started the project; Driver education as a part of ordinary upper secondary school in rural areas. The focal point in this paper is to explore how the professional participants; the school leaders, the project managers and the driving instructors in the project understand and interpret the project as a regional political instrument in order to maintain the school, the community and the rurality.
