One of the biggest dangers facing teenagers may be sitting right next to them. Nothing kills more teens than car crashes, and little is riskier for new drivers than teen passengers. That’s why newly licensed drivers should wait 1,000 miles or six months before picking up their first teen passenger.
Studies confirm: Teen Drivers + Peer Passengers = Higher Fatal Crash Risk
1 passenger = 2x Fatal Crash Risk
3 or more passengers = 4–5x Fatal Crash Risk
This October, be part of the solution and tap into a subject that captivates teens. See how your group can participate in National Teen Driver Safety Week.
