• SEAT BELT USE IS MANDATORY! Parents should remind their teenaged drivers to buckle up and require passengers to buckle up as well.
• Traffic in and around the high school is heavy before and after school. All drivers should exercise caution and common sense when traveling in this area. Obey all speed limit signs and watch for pedestrians.
• Passengers should not do anything to distract the driver. No climbing around in the car; no yelling or loud talking.
• Loud music can also be distracting and prevent you from hearing sirens. Changing stations on the radio or switching CDs can be deadly.
• Cars and cell phones don’t mix. Using a cell phone distracts you, keeps your hand off the wheel, and can easily lead to a crash.
• Parents: Be sure that your teenaged driver is obeying all Graduated Licensing guidelines and is not carrying too many passengers, etc.
