Educate Your Teen Driver
Many of our friends have teenage drivers hitting the roads and highways with those long awaited drivers licenses. In most drivers education courses new drivers get solid training on driving basics and handling common traffic situations. What is not typically covered is how to handle the road safely while sharing the road with large trucks. Geico now offers great information for teen drivers on their website in addition to continuing to offer the free auto insurance quotes they are so well known for. Knowledge is power and encouraging your teen driver to spend a little time on the Geico website might just prepare them to safely handle those first scary decisions as to what to do when faced by an oncoming big truck, choosing to pass or not pass a larger truck, and how to avoid being in a blind spot when behind a large truck. Parents and teens are encouraged to spend some time talking about all of the information on in this section of the site as it just might save a life.
