Considering that motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among 15 to 20 year olds, teen driving deserves special attention and parental supervision. The affinity between teenagers and driving may never cease to amaze parents. It is a relationship that has probably given parents more headaches than a boyfriend or girlfriend of whom they disapprove. It has also given the governments of various countries a lot of problems hence the deluge of statistics relating to the issue that they routinely compile. Let's be honest, we all passed through that phase when we really wanted to sit behind the wheel and control the vehicle. This, in conjunction with the exhilaration of driving at crazy speeds provides a feeling of invincibility and daringness missing from the seemingly regimented life of the average teen. Most parents with whom I discussed teen age driving acquired knowledge by hindsight and in some cases that was insufficient as they had already lost a child to an automobile accident. The idea here is to place facts and figures before you. I have also provided broad outlines that may serve as templates and guide you in making decisions. I further hope that the stories I will share about mine and other people's experiences will better enable you to make the decisions you need for the safety of you children. In summary, you want to guide your budding teen driver properly and that is what this book is about.
