A Message from the Director

I have a tremendous passion for safety on our roadways, particularly when it comes to our teen drivers. I’m excited to partner with an organization that understands the need to provide tools for parents and their teen drivers to assist their teens in developing safe and responsible driving habits that will stay with them through the years.

Supervising a teen driver is a great responsibility, one that will continue over the next six months and beyond. This handbook provides you with all the tools you need to successfully teach safety and responsibility when your teen is behind the wheel. Your teen will model their driving habits after you and I hope that this guidebook will also serve as a refresher to allow you to incorporate some new, safer habits into your own driving.
The guidance you provide your teen during this supervision period will prepare them to maneuver and react in all driving conditions safely. Building safe driving habits now will build the foundation your teen will need for a safe driving experience that will carry throughout his/her life. Good luck and enjoy this exciting time with your teen!
