Byesville, OHIO, February 5, 2007: GPS systems have opened a new avenue to parents looking to keep their teens safe. GPS systems allow parents to monitor, supervise and provide guidance to their teens both behind the wheel and in their day-to-day lives. It’s no secret that teens drive one way when parents are in the car versus when they’re not. With GPS you can help keep your teens out of danger.
(PressZoom.com) - Two out of five deaths among U.S. teens are the result of a motor vehicle crash. (Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention 2004) Traffic crashes are the leading cause of death for
teenagers who drive. Drivers between the age of 16 and 24 are twenty times more likely
to find themselves in a car accident than any other age group. (National Highway Traffic Safety
Administraton)
Teenage drivers are at a higher risk for being in a car crash because:
Lack of driving experience – The first few years of driving are the most dangerous; don’t
let inexperience behind the wheel harm your child.
A tendency to take risks while driving – Teens are more likely to be influenced by peer
pressure and distractions. This can lead to reckless driving and speeding.
Feeling of invincibility – Teens believe they’re going to live forever and that influences
their behavior behind the wheel of their 3,000 pound car.
These 3 things combined are a deadly combination.
But GPS is a tool that allows parents to monitor and protect their teenage drivers.
When parents urge their teen to be careful driving, they reply “yeah, yeah, yeah.” Then
once they turn the corner with the car, you just keep your fingers crossed and wonder, how
does my teenager “really” drive? Well, now you’ll know for sure! If they speed or do
something with the car you don’t approve of, you’ll know.
“The bottom line is that your teenager’s life and safety is priceless. Leave Nothing to
Chance!! Know everything about your teen’s driving! Better safe than sorry. Your
teenager doesn’t have the wisdom of an adult yet. That’s why they need your close
supervision and attention. You can record the whereabouts of your teen’s car including
location and speed plus many other features with a GPS system. GPS will help you do
your job of being a parent to keep your teen driver safe and injury-free. Peace of Mind is
now affordable”. Lillie Davis - www.falcongpstracking.com
