Here are some essential tips to help teen drivers stay safe behind the wheel this summer:
1. Watch for distractions: Whether it's texting, loud music or chatty friends, distractions can be dangerous. Keep your phone away and limit passengers to stay focused.
2. Rest: Fatigue can significantly impair your driving abilities, like alcohol impairment. Aim for at least 7-9 hours of sleep each night to stay alert and focused.
3. Prepare for the weather: Summer storms can catch you off guard. Slow down and stay focused when roads are wet and keep your car in good shape for hot weather.
4. Plan and drive smart: Before heading out, plan your route and familiarize yourself with the directions. This can help reduce stress and the temptation to use your phone for navigation while driving.
By following these tips, teen drivers can enjoy a safe and fun summer on the road.
