Exciting New Program Helps Keep New Teenage Drivers Safe and Alive

United States of America -- Free-Press-Release.com-- Feb 4, 2010 -- Parents take note: Auto accidents are the number one cause of death for teenagers (National Highway Safety Administration). No matter how much training & education a teen gets about safe driving, most teens are still likely to take dangerous chances on the road. According to the National Institutes of Health, the part of the brain that helps control impulses isn’t fully developed until a person reaches their mid 20’s. This fact, coupled with a teen’s inexperience behind the wheel, leads to more than 5,000 teen deaths in any given year. DriveZebra.com® is a safe teen driver company committed to putting a huge dent in this number.

DriveZebra.com® is the nation’s #1 “How’s my Driving?” program used by thousands of parents to keep their teen drivers safer on the road. Their unique safe teen driver program is a proactive way parents keep their teens safer on the road, and also allows parents to keep tabs on how their teen is driving. The parent simply places the company’s “How’s my Driving?” decal on their teen’s car. Each decal contains company contact information and a unique ID number. Concerned motorists can anonymously report any driving infractions witnessed at www.DriveZebra.com via an online form. The company in turn will immediately email the parent a detailed ‘incident report’ on what driving infractions were witnessed, as well as time and location of the infraction. Parents use this information to help mold their teen’s driving behavior. Studies of “How’s my Driving?’ programs have shown a proven accident reduction rate of up to 50%. DriveZebra.com® took the same successful program used by trucking companies to keep their drivers safe and reduce accidents, and applied it to teenage drivers—the drivers with the highest crash rate.

“Thousands of parents nationwide have successfully used our safe teen driver program to assist in keeping their precious kids safer on the road” says company founder Ben Bulot. “The kids don’t want to be reported to their parents and risk losing their driving privileges, so they tend to follow road rules more carefully to avoid being reported. In addition to keeping their teen drivers safer, by potentially preventing accidents parents can likely save thousands of dollars in future insurance premiums for crash prone teens.”

Bulot founded DriveZebra.com® in 2006. “I’m a problem solver” says Bulot, “I was very disturbed that many young people are dying needlessly in car accidents. I couldn’t just sit there; I wanted to do something about it. Everyone deserves to grow up and live a full life. I wanted to do my part to help prevent many of these senseless tragedies.” Since its inception, his company has assisted more than 3,000 parents in North America with keeping their teenagers safer on the road. Their one-year program costs a parent $8 per month to help protect their teen driver. “A very small price to pay to protect your teen and for potential savings in the thousands” says Bulot.

DriveZebra.com® safe teen driving program is available in the United States and Canada. They also provide free Parent/Teen contracts and program discounts to various groups such as military, churches, and other organizations.
