If you have a teenage son or daughter in your household who recently received a driver’s license, chances are you still have some concerns about safety. Just because your teen obtained a license does not mean he or she is truly ready for the road ahead. To become a skilled driver, it takes time and experience, which all teens inherently lack. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over 2,000 teens are killed in car crashes every year in the United States, making it the number one threat to teen safety.
Even if your teen driver obeys traffic laws, he or she might not have quick enough reflexes to know how to handle debris on the roadway or other unexpected obstacles that require an immediate response. As such, it is crucial to ensure your teen is educated about driving safety.
Parents play a key role in keeping teen drivers safe by instilling the importance of good driving habits and ensuring they understand the consequences of failing to exercise proper caution. Here are some tips you should share with your teen:
The more you reiterate and emphasize the importance of following these safety tips, the better prepared your teenage driver will be and the more seriously he or she is likely to take this privilege.
