Authors Tim Hollister—a parent and safe driver advocate—and Pam Shadel Fischer—a highly experienced transportation safety professional—have been guiding parents of teen drivers for over a decade with this factual and easily applied advice. They prove that supervision before driving is every bit as important to lowering crash rates as teaching teens how to turn at a busy intersection.
