Helpful driving reminders for teens<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Keep your phone silenced and put away<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

This goes for everyone on the roads, but especially inexperienced drivers. We all have smartphones now. You\u2019re probably reading this on a smartphone. Texting while driving is one of the leading causes of accidents and on-road deaths. Keep your phone silenced, or even better\u2014turned off, and put away, out of sight.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Limit your number of passengers<\/span> \"Ten<\/span><\/h4>\n

In many cases, restrictions on your license legally prohibit more than one or two passengers anyway. Even after your restrictions expire, it\u2019s still a good idea to limit your passenger count. Packing your car full of friends can cause too many distractions, and even if you keep your eyes on the road, it can be difficult to focus.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Take it slow<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Try to avoid speeding at all costs. A speeding ticket is one of the easiest traffic citations to get, and it will show up on your record and cause your insurance rates to rise. Whether you\u2019re on the highway or in a residential area, be aware of the speed limit and don\u2019t go more than two or three miles per hour faster than that. It\u2019s also important to remember not to go\u00a0<\/span>too\u00a0<\/span><\/i>slow. Driving way under the speed limit can be almost as dangerous as driving too fast. Stay safe on the roads!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
