cary couple try to keep teen drivers safe

Published Oct. 10, 2008

 

 

Drivers out there don't see entire vehicles in front of them.  Do we really think that they'll see a little red sticker??  And assuming that drivers do see the sticker do we really think that it will make a difference in the way other drivers are driving?  I DON'T THINK SO!!!

 

The Target Teen Safety program centers on red stickers that would let other drivers know that a teen is behind the wheel.

The point of the sticker is to help law enforcement identify teen drivers. There are laws in place specifically for teens and no way for police to visually identify a teen to enforce laws, hence, the sticker. Statistically teens have the highest death rate and that is what this program is focusing on, cutting down that number. If you visit the website and learn what the program is trying to be accomplish we can all help and maybe make a difference, it is all about trying to save a teen life. What responsible person would be opposed to that?

"If the weather is good, we can hear them coming a mile away."

Well that coulda been me tho. ;-P

teacher-mom - "Teens cannot be any worse than old people who drive 30 miles below the speed limit and do not use turn signals."

HEY!!! I always use turn signals...

Especially when I turn left from the hallway into the bathroom.

teacher you aint kidding !

If the weather is good, we can hear them coming a mile away.

Won't hurt, and they are trying...and you might improve it. I like the old NASCAR yellow bumper for rookies.

Teens cannot be any worse than old people who drive 30 miles below the speed limit and do not use turn signals.

And it means what, that we should get well out of their way, if we happen to see the sticker because WE'RE SUPPOSE TO BE WATCHING THE ROAD AND THE TRAFFIC AREN'T WE.

But still, they're doing something.

God bless.

I've got a red sticker on my car. It has a silver triangle in the middle. Maybe that's why I haven't had an accident...

They should paint their bumpers bright yellow, like in NASCAR.
