Driving Safely
What should my teen know about when driving?
Driving is 95% based on vision. Because your teen cannot hear well, your child should look
around a lot when he is driving. He needs to look out for
- Ambulances
- Fire trucks
- Police cars
- Children
- Animals
- Broken glass
There are things you can buy for your car that will tell your child a siren is going off.
Go to the
Able Data Website for more information. Scroll down to the 'Driving' section.

To drive safely, your teen must:
- ALWAYS be alert.
- ALWAYS drive safely and make sure to constantly look around in all directions.
- ALWAYS wear a seat belt and make sure everyone else in the car is wearing seat belts.
- ALWAYS tell you where he is going and how to contact him.
- Contact you if he needs help.
- Not sign in the car because it is distracting.
- Know that you love him and want to see him come home safely.
