Distracted driving has become an increasingly dangerous factor to drivers, passengers and pedestrians each day.
To address my concerns for our daughter's safety and preparedness for the miles that she will travel, we have registered to participate in Toyota's Teen Drive 365 Teen Driver Safety Clinic.
