Message To Teens: Avoid Distracted Driving! Message To Teens: Avoid Distracted Driving!

All drivers need to be cautious on the road, but teens are especially vulnerable to accidents behind the wheel. According to the article "Safe Driving Tips For Teenage Drivers" on DMV.org, teen drivers have more accidents than any other age group. It stands to reason then that teen drivers, more than many other drivers on the road, must remain vigilant in order to be safe. Distractions can cause accidents and injuries. Follow these tips to remain alert on the road.

  1. Keep your cell phone turned off. Don't answer the phone, look at the screen, text or email.
  2. Avoid driving with other teens in the car. Friends can be distracting; driving alone is safer.
  3. Avoid flipping thru stations on the radio. Keep the radio tuned to the same station while you drive.
  4. Keep the volume at a reasonable level. Loud music can compromise awareness of your surroundings.

If your teen is going to be driving soon, it's time to update your auto insurance policy! Contact Cook, Disharoon & Greathouse for information about auto coverage in California.
