Your teen just started driving. Now what?
Here’s how to set real boundaries that stick:

No phone while driving. Download an app that blocks texts and alerts. Set it up with them.
No fiddling with music/maps on the road. Load directions & playlists before leaving.

Make the rule: car = zero distractions. No food. No friends messing around. No gray area.

Want real peace of mind? Do this next:
✅ Sign them up for a defensive driving course
✅ Turn on telematics (most insurers offer apps that track phone use, hard stops, late-night drives)
✅ Review your state’s teen driving laws—curfews, passenger limits, and more
✅ Get our free teen driver safety guide here: countryfinancial.com/teen-driver-safety

Smart habits start now. And yes—your rules matter more than you think.
Let’s help them build confidence and caution.

Message or call me if you want to learn more about our driver safety course.
