In observance of National Teen Safe Driving Week, Tobias & Comer Law is sharing safety tips for parents help keep their teen drivers safe on the road. Traffic crashes are the leading cause of death in teens 15 – 18 years old. For parents, this is a cause of worry and frustration when their young driver takes to the roads. Take the time to talk with your teens about the importance of adhering to a set of safety rules.

While the rules of the road may seem simple, communicate their importance, and establish consequences with your teen. Make sure you have outlined the expectations you have set for safe driving. And, just as important, parents need to set the example and follow the same rules.
