Keeping Families Safe on the Road: Teen Driving Habits

Before your teen hits the road this summer, consider this … Teens are 10 times more likely to be in a fatal car accident than adults and motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among U.S. teens.
So why are teen drivers at higher risk of being involved in a car accident? Earlier this summer, we shared a “crash” course for safe teen driving providing tips on what to do – and what NOT to do – while behind the wheel. As we near the end of the “100 Deadliest Days” for driving, we want to remind families to teach teens about these safe driving habits so we can all stay safe on the road year-round.
