Review Quotes:
"As the mother of three sons, Maureen Stiles has years of practical experience teaching her teens to drive. Drawing from her life, both behind the wheel and in the passenger seat, and adding extensive research, she has written this easy-to-read and comprehensive primer on driving. This is an excellent book to give a teen who is about to slip into the driver's seat for the first time and who needs to hear about safe driving from someone other than their parents! This is a book they will actually read." --Mary Dell Harrington, cofounder of Grown and Flown

Review Quotes:
"This book provides an information-packed road map for young drivers. This will become part of our driving curriculum for our youngest daughter who just turned 15. Because of sections like "What Does That Light Mean?" we will keep this book in her glove box as an easy-to-read, quick reference point. The author's voice holds the reader's attention and guides the reader, rather than talking at them." --Julie Parker, law enforcement communications subject matter expert

Review Quotes:
"While nothing can completely prepare a new teen for hitting the road, this book comes pretty darn close! This comprehensive guide includes an explanation of essential driving skills, covers all topics commonly associated with owning a vehicle, and even prepares teens for emergency situations!" --Michele Yvonne Primich, 34-year Allstate agency owner
