Teens: Have you been pulled over or had your first accident? It’s okay. You can admit it. We want you to. In fact, I Drive Safely is offering an Apple iPad 4 to the teen driver with the best story about their first traffic ticket or accident.
If you’re between the ages of 16-20, odds are you’ve gotten at least one ticket in your first few years on the road. And you’re not alone. Drivers in your age group are at the highest risk for tickets and accidents. In fact, check out this informative infographic about the Dangers of Teenage Driving.
