Kids/new drivers

[Swimmer]

Not being a parent, but one who dealt with the other end of things for thirty seven years I found most kids drove just fine. Basically they have been sitting behind you for the last sixteen years watch you and the wife drive. So based on that if your behavior behind the wheel wasn't that bad thiers wont be either. The common violations I would see every day:non relatives in the car before the junior driver could legally transport them, (especially coming from school, just cant turn down your friends), rolling stops, and going right on red where it is not allowed. Otherwise it wasn't too bad. If the car is registered in your childs name and the plate s randomly run on the cruisers mobile data terminal, his or her date of birth is going to popped up right away and its a dead giveaway about the driver's age if an officer sees four other kids in the car. Last I new that violation is a mandatory loss of license even if a clerk or a judge dismisses the citation.

Stay up until they come home and give them a hug and do a smell test test for alcohol or weed. Sometimes, just sometimes, a kid will get a head of steam going and think they answer to no one after they start driving, and will make a wrong decision that could effect them for a long time. My mother was up whenever I came home, regardless of the time of day, and although I didn't relaize it then it was a great way for her to keep track of things.
