Has your child or someone that you know just recently received their license? Accomplishing your on road exams are just the beginnings of the real life tests that your new driver will experience now that they have received their license. According to recent statistics, it has been shown that a new driver has a fifty percent chance of getting into an accident within their first year of operating a vehicle. Those odds are not meant to scare new drivers, or their parents for that matter, but to encourage them to take extra precautions when operating a vehicle. Taking precaution means more than buckling into a seat belt. Educate your young driver on the accident statistics so that they understand:

• why they should not be talking on the phone while they are driving
• Why they should NEVER text while driving
• Why they need to give the road 100% of their concentration
