The biggest dangers for teen drivers include:
1๏ธโฃ Extra passengers: Friends can be a major distraction, especially for inexperienced drivers.
2๏ธโฃ Texting & FOMO: That notification can wait. Eyes off the road can have serious consequences!
3๏ธโฃ Inexperience: Safe driving takes practice, repetition, and continued guidance.
4๏ธโฃ Speeding: A few extra miles per hour can make a major difference in a crash. Know the speed limit and stick to it!
