SAFE TEEN DRIVING CLUB GIVES PARENTS AN EIGHT STEP PLAN TO AVOID TEEN DRIVING CRASHES; The Club Supports National Teen Driver Safety Week

Oct 17, 2007 -- /prbuzz/ --Atlanta, GA - - 10/16/07 - - In observance of National Teen Driver Safety Week, October 15 through 20, the Safe Teen Driving Club has provided parents with eight proactive steps they can take to safeguard and protect their young drivers.

Driving crashes are the number one cause of death among drivers 15 to 20 years of age. The Safe Teen Driving Club provides services that help parents protect their children as they begin driving. These include various driving monitors that let parents become "virtual passengers" in the vehicle, getting feedback on how their teens are driving; as well as collision avoidance training programs and items designed to promote safer driving.

According to Club President, David Shavzin, "Parents can now take advantage of services that have been proven for over a decade in commercial fleets for managing driving performance and reducing the crash rate. These give parents real peace of mind, and limit the risky driving behaviors that teens so often exhibit. But most importantly, parents can now have a clear view into their teen’s driving behavior, which is vital in setting effective driving rules and guidelines."

The Safe Teen Driving Pledge, a free download at the Club’s Web site, gives parents and teens a way to document family driving rules. A booklet entitled 911 FOR PARENTS, also a free download, educates parents on the top risk factors that most often lead to crashes, so they can take positive steps to avoid them.

Allan Ramsay, CEO, points out that, “Many parents don’t realize that they are entering the most dangerous phase of their parenting career when their children begin driving. We have outlined an eight-step plan of rule-setting, education and monitoring of driving in observance of National Teen Driver Safety Week to help parents avoid the tragic consequences that so often come from inexperienced drivers. All the statistics show that the teen’s most dangerous period of driving begins when they start driving solo. We strongly encourage Mom and Dad to review the outline we’ve developed to keep their sons and daughters safe and alive. Parents can find this at our site under the ‘Read Me First’ link on the home page at www.SafeTeenDrivingClub.org."
