So, your teenager is about to become a driver. How do you prepare and help them transition into a responsible, confident driver? You can set safety rules for them to follow, and make sure they pass driver’s training before getting behind the wheel. Also, meet with an informed auto insurance agent at The Ryan Insurance Agency about the best coverage options for your new driver in Clarkston, MI.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Stay Safe and Save Money With These Tips<\/h2>\n

Want to ensure your new teen driver’s safety and coverage? Talk to them about established rules that can save their lives. They should avoid texting and driving and always use a seat belt. Additionally, stress the importance of following speed limits and signs designed to warn drivers about potential road hazards. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Some parents have their teens sign a safe driving contract or discuss the consequences of driving under the influence and other dangerous behavior. Following the rules and driving safely may even result in lower premiums. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Insurance Do’s and Don’ts<\/h2>\n

There are many things you can do to keep your insurance intact after your teen starts driving. Do inform your insurance company when your teen receives their learner’s permit. It’s important to understand how adding them will impact your coverage. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Do ask your agent whether it makes sense to add your teen to your existing policy or to buy a separate policy. Keep an open dialog with your teen regarding how responsible and irresponsible behavior impacts insurance costs and coverage, and their driving privileges.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Don’t assume that you don’t need coverage while your teen has their learner’s permit. Additionally, you can protect your teen, your vehicle, and your continued coverage by letting your insurer know before your new driver gets behind the wheel.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
