Last week I introduced 5 driving scenarios to expose your teen driver to including left turns, dead traffic signal, rail road crossings, highway driving, and rush hour driving (see http://50.87.248.161/~wiseinsu/exposing-teen-drivers-to-different-driving-scenarios/). The reason for doing this is to give your teen practice at learning how to deal with complex traffic situations.
I’ve been driving for 40 years which sounds a lot longer than it actually feels. I’ve seen a lot of interesting driving scenarios during that time; people making turns from the wrong lane, cars driving the wrong way on a one way street, people moving across 4 lanes of traffic to make an exit, others who stopped on an entrance ramp, deer crossing a highway, people drifting into my lane, and much more. It continues to amaze me how fast a driving situation can change and how equally fast I’ve had to respond to what’s happening around me.
A client sent me an email two weeks ago that turned into an enjoyable “conversation” over a series of email messages. My client has a teen daughter that’s about to get her learner’s permit and she wanted to know when she should add her daughter to her car insurance policy.
?One of my clients called me last year with a question that was pretty interesting. She’s a Dallas area mom with a son who was about to turn 15. While she was already wondering what was going to happen to her car insurance premium when her son turned 16, her question was: Will she get a better discount if her son takes the parent-led vs. instructor-led driver education?
