Families who have teenagers should think seriously about enrolling their children in drivers’ education courses. Teen drivers are among the most dangerous on the road, and auto accidents are the leading cause of death to teens. This is why many insurance companies provide breaks on insurance premiums to families who put their teen drivers through school. This may be true as well for adult drivers who simply want to improve their driving skills – or who want to avoid an insurance premium hike after receiving a traffic citation. Be sure to check with your insurance company as well as your local department of motor vehicles to determine what’s best for you, and whether your car insurance premium could be lowered as a result of taking these classes.
