-
Establish initial ground rules for the use of the car.
These rules, perhaps in the form of a contract, should
include restrictions on the number of friends in the car,
circumscribed use of the radio, where and how the car may be
used, and curfew times. Curtailment of the right to drive
should be spelled out.
-
Ban cell phone use. Parents should
emphasize that the cell phone must be turned off and
unavailable while the teen is driving.
-
Prohibit drinking and driving.
Parents should emphasize that there be no exceptions to this
ironclad rule.
-
Keep distractions to a minimum. This
includes talking with friends, eating, and flipping the
radio dial.
-
Practice defensive driving.
Techniques include maintaining a safe distance from cars
ahead of the driver, closely monitoring traffic in adjacent
lanes, and taking a defensive driving class.
-
Follow the speed limit. Research indicates that high
driving speed is a significant contributor to fatal teen
accidents.
-
Choose a safe auto for your teen.
Autos with excellent crash safety records and the latest
safety equipment, including air bags and electronic
stability control, could reduce your teen's chances of being
injured in an auto accident.

Coaching Your Teenage Driver

drivers of all ages. So here are some tips for parents to pass on to their
sons and daughters who are now getting behind the wheel for the first time.
