Save your teen driver May 27, 2007
Teens as well as their parents will find John Loughry's Saving Our Teen Drivers an excellent life saving resource. Loughry's use of aviation safety skills in relation to the teen driving issue brings a fresh, unique approach beyond the typical driver's education that most teens will experience. It is packed full of information to help keep your teen driver alive. As someone who has worked with teens in the education of safe driving, I would highly recommend this book and consider it a must read for parents as well as teens.

We have all read text books, instructional publications or technical manuals that are just plain boring. This author's style of intermixing stories from his flying experience keeps the book entertaining and makes it easy to relate to real life experiences. This is not the standard dry, preachy, recitation of the same old driving rules. This book should be manditory reading not only for new drivers but anyone with a less than stellar driving record regardless of age.

As parents of five young children, my wife and I have decided to make this book required reading prior to allowing our kids to get their permits. These pilot awareness concepts and training techniques are a perfect application for helping all drivers stay safe while on the road.

This book offers easy to follow advice on how to keep our kids ALIVE behind the wheel. Today's teens have more distractions than ever while driving. And they think they're invincible. We grown ups know better. I loved the examples and descriptions. Really useful information. Your kids should read this the month BEFORE they get their permits.

Highway accidents lead deaths for drivers between the ages of 15 and 20 years, and more than 80% are due to poor decisions wrought from inexperience, peer pressure, and immaturity. Loughry, a commercial pilot, attempts to save our teen drivers by presenting the 13 most common driving errors and the aviation safety skills used to avoid them. Pilots know that that first big mistake can take away your life. Loughry can help avert it.
