Five Tips For Your Teenagers Who Are Just Learning To DriveWhether your teen has just started learning to drive or have recently passed and are feeling a bit daunted by the whole thing, we are here to make it that bit easier. Read our guide of five top tips for first-time drivers and next time they get behind the wheel they will be feeling a lot more confident…

  1. Take your time

When you are on the road, one of the worst things you can do is panic. Remember to take your time, after all, caution never hurt anybody! No matter if you are approaching a highway or waiting to be let out of a busy junction, stop, think, and go when you are ready. It’s always better to be safe than sorry and you will feel a lot calmer doing so!

  1. Plan your routes ahead of time

If you are heading somewhere new for the first time it can seem scary. Look up your route ahead of time and plan the way you feel most comfortable with. You may feel more relaxed driving in quieter residential streets or would prefer the motorway to countryside lanes. Check out the different ways and then set your Sat Nav accordingly (if using one) when you head off so you can ensure you feel at ease as much of the drive as possible. Ensure when driving in different countries you know the rules of the road as these can differ. Certain restrictions Under Nevada Law, for example, could be totally different from somewhere else.

  1. Get the technical bits out the way

Have someone with you at firstNext on our top tips for first-time drivers is to sort out the technical bits. Once you have passed your test it’s not as simple as hopping into a car and going. You will need to sort out all the technical bits such as your new driver’s license, car insurance, and car tax. Remember to keep on top of these even once you’ve been driving a while – you will need to get regular services and tests done on your car.

  1. Have someone with you at first

One of our top tips for first-time drivers is if you are feeling anxious about heading it out alone at the beginning don’t be afraid to ask someone to come and sit in with you. This could be someone who has had a license for a long time, or just a friend to fill the space in the passenger seat like you’re accustomed to with a driving instructor.

Don’t be afraid to practice even once you have passed your test

If you still feel nervous about driving once you have passed your test, don’t feel like you can’t continue to practice. Take your car to a quiet area and just practice getting used to the feel of your car – after all, you’ve probably learned in your instructor’s car and the one you have now could be completely different. It’s a good idea to practice your maneuvers too, then when you are in a situation when you need to use them you won’t stress.

These are just some of our top tips for first-time drivers. If you help your teen to follow these, they will feel more confident on the road in no time!
