When shopping for your teen's first car, safety features should top the list, not horsepower. Modern safety tech (like automatic emergency braking and side-impact airbags) makes a huge difference in preventing or minimizing injuries in a crash.

Text reads “Teen Driving Safety Tip: Have your teen sign a parent-teen driving contract to set clear rules and consequences if rules are broken. Make sure the contract requires: Seatbelt use for each person in the car at all times. No cell phones or electronic devices. Checking in with parents once the driver has safely arrived at their destination.”
The first 12 months and 1,000 miles are among the riskiest driving periods in a teen’s life. Make it clear that you expect your teen to follow the #RulesForTheRoad. #TeenDriver #TeenDriverSafetyWeek

In the first years of driving, it's critical that #teen drivers limit passengers. More people = more distractions and a higher risk of a crash.
