NHTSA Teen Driver PSA
Posted by Rich | Posted in Uncategorized | Posted on 21-10-2009
This is an interesting approach by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to educate parents about the importance of setting rules for their teen drivers. It shows the parents to be very nervous about the subject — nervous enough to employ a lawyer to establish the rules as a contract.
Is this effective? Does it say what needs to be said strongly enough to convince parents to talk with their kids? Do enough parents establish the boundaries that their teen drivers need to know? Don’t assume your child will make the right choices. They need to know the limits and we, as parents, must tell them what they are. Don’t be shy. They’re your kids.
