Traffic accidents often occur at the age of 15-29 years, and are a major cause of teenage deaths. The death toll from traffic accidents is 90% in developing countries, even though developing countries only have about 54% of vehicles in the world. As many as 50% of victims who died on the road are vulnerable road users, namely motorbike riders, cyclists, or pedestrians. there is no ongoing effort to deal with the problem, it can be predicted that traffic accidents will be the seventh cause of death by 2030 (World Health Organization, 2.

The Junior High School of 32 . r called SMPN . is one of the junior high schools on the outskirts of Samarinda with 336 students. many as 26% of students ride motorbikes to schools with unsafe driving, which has a higher risk of traffic accidents. It is important to provide health education about safe driving to prepare students for the active phase of driving. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the use of audiovisual media in the form of animated films about safe driving on the level of knowledge, attitudes and subjective norms of students at SMPN 32 Samarinda.

Madinah et al. Peyman & Jangi, 2. DISCUSSIONS Findings showed that the intervention group and the control group had different levels of The level of knowledge, attitudes and subjective norms in the intervention group was better than the level of those in the control This finding was in line with previous studies (Aeni et al. , 2015. Imran, 2017. Meidiana et al. , 2018. Nandipinta, 2013. Nurmilah, 2017. Siregar, 2018. Yanti & Dewi, 2. , revealed that there is a significant difference in the average knowledge of the intervention and control group after given health education using video or audiovisual The average knowledge of the intervention group . was higher than the average of knowledge of the control group . This result is supported by a previous study mentioned that a person can remember from what is heard and seen simultaneously In addition, the results of this study also showed that there was a significant difference in the subjective norms between both groups. The average difference shows the value of subjective norms of the intervention group . was higher than it in the control group . This result confirms previous studies that there was an effect of health education through audiovisual media on the subjective norms (Ebrahimipour et al. , 2016. Eslamimehr et al.

July - September 2019 information received by students about safe driving were originated from parents and However, the knowledge that has been obtained does not guarantee the students would apply safe driving behavior. The students who did not have a driving license and allowed to ride a motorbike were caused by the tendency of permissive attitudes of parents by allowing something that is not supposed to be through the provision of motorcycle facilities (Rozali. In addition, the environmental factors at home and school are also considered a source of formation of intention in riding a motorcycle.

Further study needs to pay attention to this CONCLUSION There are differences in the average of knowledge, attitudes, and subjective norms of students between the intervention group and the control group with p-value of 0. The levels of knowledge, attitudes, and subjective norms in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group. The audiovisual media used in the delivery of health education is very effective in increasing students' knowledge, attitudes, and subjective norms about safety riding at junior high school students. The results of this study add the new knowledge that the audiovisual media could communicate messages quickly and effectively in the provision of health education. A study stated that someone will be remember as much as 20% of what is heard, amounting to 30% of what is seen, and able to remember from what is seen and heard by 70% (Kholid, 2.
