Description
In 2010, seven (7) teenagers ages 16 to 19 died every day from motor vehicle injuries. Per mile driven, teenage drivers ages 16 to 19 are three times more likely than drivers aged 20 and older to be in a fatal crash. In result, car crashes are the number one killer of teens and take an average of ten (10) teen lives every day (Undefined, www.iihs.org).
The Advanced Teen Safety Driving Program* is a two-part program designed for teenagers, ages 16-21, to gain advanced skills and techniques to assist with real world driving situations and to avoid being in dangerous driving situations.
