What teaching method is most effective for helping a New York student overcome fear of highway driving?

1. Avoid highway driving entirely until the student stops reporting fear or anxiety
2. Use systematic desensitization: start with highway observation, progress to short highway segments at less busy times, and gradually increase distance and traffic complexity
3. Place the student on a busy highway immediately so repeated exposure overwhelms the fear
4. Discuss highway driving only in class and omit gradual supervised highway practice
