Deadliest Teen Driving Days - Memorial Day to Labor Day

During the summer, teens and other children typically enjoy vacation and the freedom of being out of school. Statistics show that this time period (Memorial Day to Labor Day) involves the 100 most deadly days on the roadway for teens.

It appears that summer months are the peak months for teen automobile accident deaths and personal injuries. Some experts believe that teen driving has gotten worse over time rather than better. This is due, in part, to additional driver distractions in the form of mobile telephone conversations, text messaging and e-mailing surfing on iPhones, Blackberry devices, and other smart or advanced phones. Parents should warn and instruct their children about the dangers of driver distraction, drinking and driving and other driving habits that can and do result in automobile accidents.

We wish all our clients, family and friends a safe and happy Labor Day weekend. Make sure to take some time to relax and enjoy.
