Tips for Teenagers

• Always wear your seat belt.
• Obey the speed limit. Going too fast gives you less time to react.
• Use your turn signals so other drivers know what you are doing.
• Don’t drink and drive. Drinking under the age of 21 is illegal.
• Focus on the driving task—the road and the conditions around you.
• Don’t use your cell phone while driving. This is a distraction that will take your attention away from driving.
• Don’t eat or drink while driving. These are also distractions.
• Plan ahead. Know where you are going and get directions.
• Leave early. Give yourself plenty of time to get there.
