Here are some tips you may want to consider for a successful experience.
Before your teens even start taking the steering wheel, you can teach them proper driving by being a good role model.
They watch what you do in a vehicle, so whatever it is that you want them to learn, you need to show and execute first. For instance, you want them to practice safe driving and have their seatbelts buckled all the time. They won’t follow you if you don’t do it, become a good example. You should model the behavior you want your kids to emulate while driving to make sure they are safe and they do it right.
Driving is a skill you can’t force someone to learn if they are not ready.
