Parents of teens: Fear not once your young one is ready to get behind the wheel.
AAA wants to make the driving experience a little easier on parents and less confusing to teenagers. It has launched TeenDriving.AAA.com, to help parents navigate the often confusing process of teaching teens to drive and get their driver permit and license.
The interactive site helps parents and teens get state-specific rules and information on preparing to drive (pre-permit) through the learner’s permit and solo driving.
The site features AAA StartSmart, a series of online newsletters and webisodes based on the National Institutes of Health’s Checkpoints program, which helps parents improve teen driver safety and is being offered nationally for the first time. Some of the topics covered in AAA StartSmart’s 18 newsletters and webisodes include nighttime driving, distracted driving, alcohol and other drugs, and parent-teen driving agreements.
Parents will find information about Washington's graduated driver licensing system, selecting a driving school and choosing the right vehicle for their teens.

I think the AAA start smart program is top notch, mainly because it involves the parents and the teens.We must stay aware of our teens driver education before their license and after. We should all ride along once in a while to check on their progress or lack of progress
