Alive at 25 Parent 

Defensive Driving Course - Alive at 25®
Parent Program

Parents play the most important role in their teens learning-to-drive process.

Partnering with Your Teen Driver

To properly prepare teens to drive, parents must have a clear understanding of the risks they face. That’s why the National Safety Council developed the Alive at 25 Parent Program. The 3-hour course identifies those risks and helps parents reinforce basic driving skills and good decision-making to help teens become safe, responsible, and defensive drivers.

This innovative program gets parents involved in training their teens to drive safely and responsibly by:

  • Encouraging parent/teen partnership throughout the entire process, from learning to drive through independent driving.
  • Offering practical solutions so parents can take responsibility to reduce the unique risks and hazards teen drivers face
  • Helping parents understand teens’ need for defensive driver training
  • Examining how to approach Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) laws, in addition to those related to safety belts, speeding, and alcohol and drugs
  • Providing a recommended example of an effective Parent/Teen Driver Contract and discussing the importance of how parents and teens can use it to manage their driving experience

New in 2008! Based on the Alive at 25 Parent Program classroom course, the online program offers convenient 24/7 access and bookmark feature for even the busiest parents. Links to other resources, including state government websites on teenage driving laws, are included.
