DDC - Alive at 25 Parent Program

Parents play an important role in the learning-to-drive process and they need to be armed with the skills and communication techniques to get through to their teen driver. Alive at 25 is the first of its kind to identify the risks their young drivers face and help parents reinforce basic driving skills and good decision-making to help their teens become responsible, crash-free drivers. Open class dialogue provides a platform for parents to learn from other parents as well as the instructor. The course examines Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) laws, other laws related to safety belts, speeding, alcohol and drugs, and practical solutions to reduce the risks their teens face. Most importantly, parents will walk away with an effective Parent/Teen Driver Contract and the tools to engage their teens and manage their driving experience.
