Start with a plan

Use short sessions to practice vehicle setup, smooth braking, scanning, space management, and increasingly complex traffic situations.

How often should I practice driving with my teenager?
Short, frequent sessions are usually more useful than rare marathon drives because they allow the driver to repeat a skill, reflect, and return with a fresh focus.
