Save Money on your Teen Driver – Free E-Book

Congratulations, parents! Your teen just got their driver’s license—a huge milestone on their journey to independence. But before they hit the road, there’s a lot you need to know about keeping them safe and managing your insurance costs.

That’s why we’ve created the FREE Trailstone Teen Driver ToolKit, packed with tips and resources to help parents navigate this exciting (and nerve-wracking) time.


Let’s talk about one of the most nerve-wracking milestones for parents—your child getting their driver’s license. It’s an exciting day for them, but for you? It might feel like handing over the keys to a 4,000-pound liability.

Why? Because insurance companies see teen drivers as high risk, meaning rates tend to spike when you add them to your policy.

But don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with our FREE 22-page Teen Driver ToolKit! It’s designed to make this transition smoother, safer, and more affordable for your family.


What’s Inside the Trailstone Teen Driver ToolKit?

This FREE eBook is packed with tools to help parents and teens:

  • Start meaningful conversations about safe driving practices.
  • Establish safety agreements.
  • Use engaging infographics and tips to foster responsible driving habits.

Top Safety Tips for Teen Drivers

1. Always Buckle Up

Teach your teen that seat belts save lives—every time, no exceptions.

2. No Drugs or Alcohol

Make it clear: zero tolerance for driving under the influence.

3. Avoid Distractions

Talk about the dangers of texting, fiddling with the radio, or getting distracted by passengers while driving.


7 Key Highlights from the ToolKit

1. Defensive Driving Skills

Encourage your teen to stay alert, obey traffic laws, and avoid aggressive driving. These habits reduce accidents and promote long-term safety.


2. Solo Driving Safety

When your teen starts driving alone, remind them to:

  • Park in well-lit areas.
  • Stay vigilant.
  • Trust their instincts if they feel unsafe.

3. Adapting to Weather Conditions

Teach your teen how to respond responsibly in an accident.
