Passing the road test does not mean that new drivers are good drivers; that comes with good preparation, experience and avoiding risks. This is important because crashes are a leading cause of death for teens, who face their highest lifetime crash risk in the months following licensure. The good news is that the learner period, when a teen is learning and practicing driving with an adult, is the safest time. This guide is here to help parents and caregivers make the most of learning to drive and know how to support their teens through this exciting yet complex process .  \nWHAT THIS GUIDE COVERS  \nHow teen brain development affects driving behavior  \nSafety tips for new drivers and how parents can help to lower crash risks  \nStep-by-step information on getting a learner’s permit and driver’s license in PA and NJ  \nOur virtual driving assessment: A way to test your teen’s skills and their crash risk  \nWhether your teen is just starting to drive or you want to help them become a safer driver, this guide provides useful tools and knowledge for a successful driving experience.  \nWHY ARE TEEN DRIVERS AT RISK?  \nTeen brains work differently from adult brains. The part of the brain that helps with decision-making (the frontal cortex) and other parts of the brain are still developing until the mid-20s. Because of this, teens are more likely to act on impulse, take risks and struggle to consider consequences.  \nThis brain development stage increases teen driving risks. Studies show that 75% of serious teen crashes happen because of critical mistakes, such as:  \n• Not spotting hazards (for example, distracted driving or not scanning the road)  \n• Driving too fast for road conditions or following too closely  \n• Losing control of the vehicle (for example, oversteering or not braking enough)  \nTo learn more about how the teen brain affects behavior, problem solving and decision making, scan this code.  \nHOW CAN WE REDUCE THE RISK?  \nFOLLOW THE GRADUATED DRIVER LICENSING (GDL) SYSTEM  \nThe GDL system helps new drivers build driving experience safely through the following three stages:  \n1. Learner’s permit – Teens learn to drive and practice driving with a licensed adult.  \n2. Intermediate ( junior) license – Teens gain privileges to drive without an adult but with restrictions, such as curfews, limited passengers and no phone use while driving.  \n3. Full license – Teens are fully licensed with no extra rules.  \nScan this code to use an interactive map to get your state’s GDL requirements.  \nUSE TEEN DRIVER SOURCE’S PRACTICAL TOOLS  \nChildren’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) offers a free online resource—called Teen Driver Source—to help parents and teens navigate the journey of learning to drive safely. The website includes:  \n• Practice driving lessons – Step-by-step guides, videos and tips for supervised driving practice.  \n• Safety tips – How to avoid distractions, wear seatbelts and follow speed limits.  \n• State licensing laws – Easy explanations of permits, licenses, and GDL requirements and restrictions.  \n• Setting rules – Templates and tips for creating parent-teen driving agreements.  \n• Crash prevention strategies – Information on common risks and how to prevent crashes.  \nTeens can use the site to learn about:  \n• Driving skills –Ways to improve basic and advanced driving skills and performance.  \n• Safe driving tips – Tips to avoid distractions and risky behaviors like texting while driving.  \n• Being a good passenger –Ways to encourage safe driving when riding with others.  \nVisit Teen Driver Source ([teendriversource.research.chop.edu](teendriversource.research.chop.edu)) to access lessons, videos and downloadable tools to make learning to drive a safer experience for everyone.  \nMAKE THE MOST OF THE LEARNER’S PERMIT  \nOnce teens get their learner’s ","cbCaifwvFgHgTBc1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifwvFgHgTBc1","pdf",6513900,"English","# What this guide covers\n## Why are teen drivers at risk?\n## How can we reduce the risk?\n## Follow the Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) system\n## Use Teen Driver Source’s practical tools\n## Make the most of the learner’s permit\n## Help your teen through the intermediate (junior) license period","[{\"question\":\"Why are teen drivers at risk right after getting a license?\",\"answer\":\"Teen brains are still developing, especially areas involved in decision-making and consequences.
