Tricks to help your teen become a better and safer driver. <\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Do you have a teen driver in the house? If you do, you probably put them behind the wheel whenever you can, and that is a great way to gain crucial driving skills and confidence on the road. The only downside to this is that the driver can quickly get familiar with the same routes and the same challenges, whether it\u2019s a drive towards the grocery store or driving back from sports practice. When your teen has to drive somewhere out of the ordinary or encounters a new challenge, they develop new skills and stronger confidence.<\/p>\n

Here are a few tricky skills that you probably haven\u2019t practiced with your teen (but should!).<\/p>\n

Different Stoplights<\/strong><\/p>\n

One-way streets, unprotected left turns, flashing yellow lights, busy crosswalks\u2026 There are plenty of different stoplights to learn. Even though certain intersections can be trickier than others, practicing them will help your teen driver to learn about staying aware of pedestrians, turning vehicles, and gauging when they can make a turn.<\/p>\n

Long Distances<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clearly, you\u2019re not going to want to turn your new driver loose on a road trip, however, if their longest drive has been to the mall and back, they might not be prepared for what driving long distances feels like. It\u2019s often wise to give them some practice free-range driving, such as driving out to the country or catching a college game. Dealing with new roads, extended periods of focusing, and more drivers will ultimately help them become confident once they are loose behind the wheel.<\/p>\n

Nighttime Driving<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many teens only drive during the day, so when they get behind the wheel at night once they\u2019ve passed their test, they struggle. Driving at night has its dangers, from decreased visibility to drowsiness. It\u2019s smart to take your teen out driving on a quiet weekday night to get them familiar and comfortable with driving around at night. Talk to your teens about the dangers and remind them to always have their headlights on.<\/p>\n
