Memorial Day kicks off summer driving season and with it an increase in teen driver accidents. GJEL Accident Attorneys announced the launch of its Parent-Teen Safe Driving Contract as a family discussion guide for teens to pledge safe driving.
San Francisco (Vocus/PRWEB ) June 2, 2010 -- Gillin Jacobson Ellis & Larsen (GJEL Accident Attorneys), a catastrophic injury and wrongful death law firm in the San Francisco Bay Area, has created a Parent-Teen Safe Driving Contract, in time for the summer driving season that kicked off Memorial Day weekend.
“As summer vacation begins, we traditionally see an increase in traffic accidents and fatalities among young people, and reckless and distracted driving is the number-one weakness of many teen motorists,” said Andrew Gillin, managing partner of GJEL Accident Attorneys. “In our effort to keep families and other motorists safe, our firm has created this free discussion guide to elevate attention on teen driver safety among parents and young adults.”
The safe-driving contract is intended to help initiate conversation about roadway safety, especially for teen drivers and their passengers. The agreement covers six areas pertaining to distracted driving, driving under the influence, driving a vehicle with minors, speeding and other rules of the road, and auto accidents. Each section includes specific pledges to prompt family discussion, and the contract suggests signatures to seal the agreement.
The GJEL Accident Attorneys Parent-Teen Safe Driving Contract is available for download at in an editable Microsoft Word format to help families adjust the content to their individual situations.
“We suggest parents establish a reward if the contract is fulfilled and a consequence when teens break their pledge to be safe as a motorist,” said Gillin. “If this contract does helps promote awareness, family discussion, and erase the fear factor among teens, then we're hopeful about reducing the number of incidents of distracted driving this summer.”
Also available at GJEL Accident Attorneys’ News Center is a printable accident checklist, which provides tips on what to do in the event of a traffic accident. Teens are encouraged to carry a copy in their vehicle’s glove compartment.
