Teen Driver Tips Teen Driver Parent Tip #6
Night driving should be kept to a minimum.
Many states institute graduated license systems that place restrictions on what times of the day the newest of teen drivers can be on the road for the first couple months with a license. According to the IIHS, 40 percent of teen deaths in motor vehicles occur between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m, and studies have shown nighttime driving restrictions typically are associated with crash reductions of 40 to 60 percent. If your kids are at a friend's house late, encourage them to sleep over (assuming there are parents present).
