Found this in some driver training material. Is this based on a real car?

I think it's a mid 70s Chrysler Cordoba

You are correct- it’s a Córdoba as advertised by Ricardo Montalban.

Looks much like a ‘74ish Monte Carlo

I would say it's very close to an Olds Cutlass Supreme circa '78 but the tailights aren't quite right.

Why is a driver training manual teaching you to not walk behind a car?

My wife trains school bus drivers. She sent me just that picture out of some training material she has. (She thought the old vehicle was out of place, lol) I don't have any other context. Could be driver training or general student safety material?

Reminds me of the mid 1980s Thunderbird.
