"Teaching Your Teen to Drive"
Tell-My-Mom.com is concerned with teens and ensuring that they learn how to properly
drive an automobile. We have developed this book to help parents while
they are driving with their teen. "Teaching Your Teen To Drive" (70 pages,
Print Yourself e-book) offers 40 lessons with skills to be learned, in order, starting
in a parking lot with simple operations of the vehicle and proceeding
through City, Highway and Night driving. These step-by-step lessons make
teaching your teen to drive much easier.
Driver's education is a very important part of learning to
drive, however, the drivers education instructors cannot be the only
person to work with your teen. As parents it is ultimately your
responsibility to ensure that your teen fully understands the
responsibilities involved and the proper operation of the vehicle.
Developed with the assistance of Highway Safety personnel
and professional driving instructors, "Teaching Your Teen To Drive" has
step by step lessons to help you work with your teen to develop basic
driving skills.
Our lessons are designed to give you and your teen 40
hours of practice driving in varied situations. This experience will
qualify for most states Graduated Drivers Licensing requirements.
