[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi I am the original poster. I am still looking for anecdotal info on how your teens handled the first month, first six months, etc. Any wrecks? Tickets?[/quote] My DS was 17 when he got his license, and has had no problems in his first year of driving. We let him drive everywhere we went together as a family, so he received a lot of practice on the Beltway and on highways. He had far more hours of experience than was required by the time he received his license. One area that I feel the driving schools need to emphasize more is using caution when there are children and other pedestrians present, for example, on streets without sidewalks and in parking lots. Teens don't think about children dashing out in the street unexpectedly, or that an older person might not hear a car behind them when they are walking. [/quote]
