When preparing teens for real-world driving, many people don't consider that their own road habits have a direct influence on their kids. When you use your phone on the road, it inadvertently conveys that this behavior is okay, which is why it's best to avoid it at all costs, especially anytime they're in the car with you. Studies show that teens model the driving behavior of their parents, so along with having a conversation about driving dos and don'ts, it's also very important to model good driving habits.
In addition, the vehicle you purchase for your teen will also have an effect on their safety. At Texas Toyota of Grapevine, we understand the worries of parents who have young drivers in the home, so we invite you to consult with one of our representatives to get information about the best vehicle options for teens. We offer several new and used Toyota cars that are both safe and inexpensive, so visit soon to browse inventory, and bring your entire family!
