Not So Fast Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

Most of the information available to parents of teen drivers acknowledges that driving is risky, and then advises parents that their obligation is to teach their teens how to operate a vehicle—but little more. Missing from most available resources are explanations of why teen driving is so dangerous, and specific, proactive steps that parents can take day-by-day, each time a teen driver gets behind the wheel, to counteract the situations that most often lead to crashes. Not So Fast fills this gap in the existing literature, providing advice to parents, guardians, and other adults who supervise teen drivers about the critical decisions that must be made before a teen drives. Not So Fast empowers and guides parents to: • Evaluate the circumstances of every driving trip • Be able to say “No” when necessary • Prepare a “flight plan” for each drive • Become an informed, proactive supervisor • Control distracted driving and texting • Put safety before convenience • Manage curfews, and much more Since losing his 17-year-old son Reid in a one-car crash in 2006, Tim Hollister has became a national authority and spokesperson for safer teen driving, serving on a Connecticut state task force to overhaul his state's teen driving laws; launching From Reid’s Dad, a national blog for parents of teen drivers; appearing as an expert commentator on regional TV and radio; and being awarded the US Department of Transportation Public Service Award, the nation’s highest civilian award for traffic safety. Sandy Spavone is the executive director of National Organizations for Youth Safety (NOYS), a coalition of national organizations that promote youth empowerment and leadership and build partnerships that save lives, prevent injuries, and enhance safe and healthy lifestyles among all youth.

Preventing Teen Motor Crashes Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

From a public health perspective, motor vehicle crashes are among the most serious problems facing teenagers. Even after more than six months of being licensed to drive alone, teens are two to three times more likely to be in a fatal crash than are the more experienced drivers. Crash rates are significantly higher for male drivers, and young people in the United States are at greater risk of dying or being injured in an automobile than their peers around the world. In fact, in 2003 motor vehicle crashes was the leading cause of death for youth ages 16-20 in the United States. Understanding how and why teen motor vehicle crashes happen is key to developing countermeasures to reduce their number. Applying this understanding to the development of prevention strategies holds significant promise for improving safety but many of these efforts are thwarted by a lack of evidence as to which prevention strategies are most effective. Preventing Teen Motor Crashes presents data from a multidisciplinary group that shared information on emerging technology for studying, monitoring, and controlling driving behavior. The book provides an overview of the factual information that was presented, as well as the insights that emerged about the role researchers can play in reducing and preventing teen motor crashes.

Driving Institute of America presents The Teen Driver's Bible Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

IF YOU DRIVE A VEHICLE, YOU NEED THIS BOOK! Here's the deal. We have a huge problem and it must be corrected immediately! From 2000 to 2018, we have had 768,828 people killed in United States in auto accidents (from National Safety Council's Accident Facts)! The past three years (2016""2018), we have had over 40,000 fatalities each year! These are the most in the past nine years, which tells me our training system is not working! This is UNACCEPTABLE! If you drive a vehicle, you need to go through this training! It will be one of the most important books you will ever read! How many of these people would have said they were good drivers? Yes, almost all of them! Fact: 25 percent of all fatal auto accidents are DUI accidents. The other 75 percent of the fatal accidents I classify as sober-related accidents! A problem this book will address in simple detail. Fact: The only way you would attend a driver safety course is by receiving a citation; you attend the class and say, "This was a great refresher. I'm glad I took it." This is not a refresher but a survival course! The solution to preventing these staggering statistics is retraining the 210 million drivers on the road with a fundamental, focus-concept training with accident situations. This training is intended to make you a proactive driver versus a reactive driver! Being reactive, most of the time, is too late! I have done much research and developed simple analogies, concepts, and accident-possibility situations that will change your mindset and driving behavior every time you get behind the wheel. Driving Institute of America (DIA) wants to make you a DIA-Certified Teen Driver versus just a teen driver! There is a huge difference! Your life is worth a whole lot more than the cost of this book! You will understand that every time you get behind the wheel, YOU ARE ENTERING THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE IN THE WORLD""THE PUBLIC HIGHWAYS! Never forget this! 100 PERCENT FOCUS AND SAFE DRIVING! "You saved my life three different ways!" ""Dee D., Austin, TX "I've been a driver for over thirty years and this training taught me some life-saving skills!" ""Matt T., Leander, TX "I definitely think everyone who drives a vehicle absolutely needs this training!" ""Tom J., Cedar Park, TX "It definitely made our teen more responsible by completing all the certifications. It was an eye opener!" ""Shorouk N., Austin, TX "Thank you, this information has helped me so much and it made me more attentive to my own driving habits." ""Deni H., Austin, TX "Yes, I believe everyone who completes this training will be a much more knowledgeable and safer driver." ""Karen E., Spokane, WA
