We can make high auto insurance costs and automobile accidents go down by providing our kids with more time behind the wheel.

Why do the parents not take more control and accept their continued responsibility? Why do other institutions, which are primarily geared to learning, allow or even encourage, by the hours alcohol is available, heavy drinking? And why are the people who know and explain the dangers not listened to?

Thinking beyond the GDL basics is imperative to improve teen driving safety and parents hold the key!

In our culture, a ceremony to honour a young person entering into their teen years is quite rare. Yet, this rite of passage, of becoming a teenager, is one of the major transitions in our lives. The pre-teenage years that I witnessed in my three children and from what I remember of my own childhood were filled with a sense of innocence and freedom. There were times of struggle, upset and fear yet primarily there were not many concerns about the bigger picture.
