Best Practices for Teenage and College-Aged Drivers

If you’re a parent of a teenager or young adult, I tip my hat to you, as guiding them through their ever-widening worlds while respecting their needs for independence is no easy task. Fortunately, when it comes to car safety, a little knowledge can go a long way. Here are a collection of articles of best practices related to teen and college-aged drivers. You’ll find my latest recommendations for which kinds of vehicles to choose (and avoid), and why, and even more importantly, how to influence their driving habits to increase their odds of becoming as safe behind the wheel as Mom and Dad…in time, of course.
