Driving 101: Help Your Teenager Obtain Their License And Become Responsible Drivers

7/26/2021

​Helping teenagers acquire their driver's licenses is a milestone for both parents and teens. To guide teenagers into becoming responsible drivers, here are some things parents must know:
Help Your Teenager Obtain License
Parents are encouraged to participate in their teen's license application process. It is an ideal opportunity to know how your teen will behave on the road while fostering a parent-teen relationship. To give them an overview, here are the steps to obtaining a license:
  1. Know your state laws
    Have your teenagers understand the laws in your state with regards to teenage driving. These include the process and requirements for acquiring licenses.

  2. Apply for Driver's Education 
    Before applying for a learner's permit, teenagers from some states must first complete driver's education courses. Numerous high schools offer these. Otherwise, you can ask your local DMV for an agency that provides these courses.

  3. Abide by the State's Graduated Driver Licensing Laws
    Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) laws differ across states. Having your teen understand these can help them get their license faster. 

  4. Proceed with a Learner's Permit
    Your teen can acquire a learner's permit at the local DMV if they pass your state's age and education requirements. When applying, make sure to go with your teen to have an adult with them. Also, they will need to provide proof of identity and pass written knowledge and vision tests. A learner's permit is between $80 to $200. 

  5. Advance to Driver's License Test
    To get a license, your teen must accomplish sign recognition, vision, knowledge, and of course, driving skills tests. A brand-new license costs around $40 to $100. If they fail any of these tests, they can retake them after a certain amount of time. 

Help Your Teenager Become Responsible Driver
You may not always be there to watch after your teen driving. But, you can educate them further about responsible driving and avoid unfortunate outcomes. Talk with them and help them process various what-if scenarios. Also, it might be practical to set some rules with real consequences. Most importantly, be a good role model of responsible driving.

Conclusion
Besides insurance, proper guidance and education can help parents deal with the stress of having their teens on the road. It will always be beneficial to raise responsible drivers.
