Driving & Surviving: Teaching Your Teen To Drive is a parent-focused course that gives moms, dads, and guardians the tools and structure they need to be effective driving coaches during their teen’s learner-permit phase. It pairs perfectly with any state’s required teen driver education program.
Parents are statistically the single most important factor in a new teen driver’s safety record — but coaching a new driver is harder than it looks. Old habits, defensive instincts, and the simple fact that you have been driving for decades can make it surprisingly difficult to explain the basics clearly and patiently.
Our Driving & Surviving program walks parents through every stage of the supervised-driving period: how to introduce vehicle control on quiet streets, how to gradually expand into highways, weather, and night driving, how to handle distractions and emotional moments, and how to set rules about speed, passengers, and phones that actually stick. The course includes a downloadable parent-teen driving agreement and a printable practice log.
JB Safe Drivers' Driving & Surviving program is designed for parents and guardians of teen drivers and complements your state's required teen driver-education curriculum.
Price: $29.95
Parents, step-parents, guardians, or any adult who will be supervising a teen during their learner-permit and provisional-license phase.
No. This is a companion program for the supervising adult. Your teen must still complete any state-required driver-education course (such as Florida’s TLSAE or New York’s 5-Hour Pre-Licensing Course).
Stages of supervised driving, how to teach core skills, managing distractions, setting house rules, the science of teen brain development, and how to handle the inevitable mistakes and close calls without damaging the parent-teen relationship.
Most parents complete it in about 3 hours. It is self-paced and saves your progress automatically.
A downloadable parent-teen driving agreement, a printable practice log to track supervised hours, and a quick-reference coaching guide for in-car use.
Ideally yes, but the course is useful at any point during your teen’s first year of driving.
This is a parent-education program; it is a supplemental resource and not a replacement for your state’s mandatory driver-education course.
Absolutely — and we recommend that any adult who will be supervising the teen take the course so you are coaching with consistent rules.
