Re-activateAfter our recent blog exploring the benefit of teen car control clinics, we received a lot of positive feedback and even more questions on where to find such schools. We've compiled the list below of some schools that help teach teens learn how to control their cars better to avoid accidents.
The tragic reality is that teenagers are four times as likely to crash the older drivers, and cars crashes are the number one killer of teens. Preparing your teen for driving involves more than classroom training and a test. It should involve good, real-world preparation, and a graduated approach to full driving freedom—expanding the hours and lessen restrictions over time, as skill and maturity develop.
We have seen first hand the benefits of teen defensive driving schools. In following several teens through a program recently, they all found the one-day clinic beneficial having improved their awareness, confidence, and capabilities.
The CBS Early Show recently demonstrated the value of such programs and shows how they work. (See video.)
If you have a teen driver, please consider sending them through such a program. It could be the best money you'll ever spend. And in some cases, the classes are free.
