YOUR Teen...YOUR Influence

May is Global Youth Traffic Safety Month & National Bike Month


Did you know summer is the most dangerous time for teens on our roadways? 

In the United States...  

We know motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for 15-20 year-olds, causing roughly one-third of all deaths for this age group; however, what you may not realize is May, June, July and August were among the top 5 deadliest months for young drivers in 2011.  During the summer months, teens have a higher presence on our roads.  They are attending prom, graduating, working, traveling and spending more time with friends.  Be sure to talk with your teen about these safe driving tips this summer.

In the April issue of the UnderYOURInfluence newsletter, we provide you with information and resources about Global Youth Traffic Safety Month and safe driving around bicyclists. Sign up for the newsletter now and download the full April issue.
