The school has started in Central Florida again, and many teens are driving themselves to school for the first time this year. If your child is one of them, you want to ensure their safety by speaking with an insurance agency in Lakeland, FL.
Studies show vehicular fatalities are the leading cause of death for US teens. What can you do to make sure your child is not another statistic? First, make sure they are entirely prepared for the roadways. Safe-driving courses can be an excellent investment (and they can lead to car insurance discounts, a bonus!). Sitting down and discussing limitations with your child is also a good idea. While they may legally be allowed to drive at any time or with any amount of people in the car, you may want to set limits (such as no driving after dark or no driving with more than two passengers) until they are more familiar with navigating the roadways.
Making sure they understand the basic rules of the road as well.
While these are all tips that are gone over during safe driving courses and before they receive their license, it is essential to remind them:
Accidents can still happen even with rules in place, safe driving courses aced, and basic rules drilled in their minds. Because of this, having Lakeland car insurance for your teens is vital. To receive a free quote for auto insurance, contact Lock Insurance today at 877-709-8101.
