HIGHWAY DRIVING SAFETY TIPS FOR YOUR TEEN!
Project 111 would like to remind parents that we are focusing on Highway Driving this month. PLEASE talk with your teen driver about the following tips:
- Leave PLENTY of distance between you and the car ahead of you
*When traveling at high speeds, following too closely could have very dangerous consequences. It is much easier to lose control of your car at 70 mph than at 40 mph.
- Keep Right
*The left lane is considered a passing lane – it is not a travel lane. Unless you are passing another vehicle, stay in the right lane. The Michigan State Police are actually focusing ON THIS ISSUE right now. They WILL ticket you for traveling in the passing lane!
- Don’t skimp on head checks
*Try to know where the vehicles around you are at all times. Don’t take chances!!!! Do a head check to check your blind spots BEFORE you move! It is imperative to maintain awareness during highway driving!
Remember!!!! Sometimes in life we don’t get do-overs! Drive to save a life!
