According to the National Safety Council, driving at night is more dangerous than any other time of day. In fact, the risk of a fatal crash is three times greater at night.

​

Adult Tips:

• Discuss with your teen a time you had difficulty seeing in the dark. Talk about how you had to be more vigilant.

• Talk about:

• What to do when they are driving and tired.

• Not driving if they are too tired. Offer to give them a ride.

• The importance of minimizing distractions when driving at night. Tell them it's okay to ask other passengers to be quiet.

• Take your teen practice driving at night.
