Why be a teenSMART Driver?
It Saves You Money! More insurance companies offer higher discounts for teenSMART than any other teen crash reduction program available.
It Works! teenSMART uses realistic driving simulations proven to improve driving skills. It focuses on skills related to the "BIG SIX" factors that cause most teen car crashes:
VISUAL SEARCH
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
HAZARD DETECTION
SPACE MANAGEMENT
RISK PERCEPTION
LIFESTYLE ISSUES
By using behavioral intervention methodology and scientifically-based instructional technology, teen skills, attitudes and behaviors significantly improve.
It's Valid! teenSMART uses validated content proven to reduce teen car crashes.
It's Effective! In repeated clinical trials, teens who complete the program have up to 30% fewer collisions one year after training than teens in matched control groups that didn't take the training.
It's Fun! The program includes driving simulations and in-car exercises that are engaging as well as effective.
New drivers can learn to anticipate dangerous situations, develop critical decision making skills, become aware of what is going on around them and expect the unexpected.
