DMV Center Provides Safe Driving Precautions for Teenage Drivers
The DMV Center for Teen Safe Driving reminds parents and teens that young drivers need to be extra cautious while learning how to drive a vehicle. This is the holiday season, which means the traffic will be at its peak. New drivers lack the capability of reacting properly to situations that have the potential to turn dangerous very fast.

The DMV commissioner, Robert M. Ward believes that “young drivers need to remember to be careful at all times when driving under any circumstances, to pull over if they are having difficulty”. Similarly, their parents should follow all the teen safe driving laws. “These laws are designed to help keep them safe while learning to drive”, he adds.

“Being at the wheel is a great responsibility, not to just keep the passenger and driver safe, but to pay heed to others sharing the road. Give yourself extra driving time, extra room near you, and always concentrate on the driving as your priority. I'm the last one you want to meet at the holidays”, says David Shapiro, the trauma surgeon and the Associate Director of Surgical Critical Care at Hartford's St. Francis Hospital.

Safety experts recommend that parents should advise their teenage children and provide them with supervised driving experience. The DMV Center has all the detailed information for parents and teenagers on all the regulations and laws and the required training information.
