My Driver Safety
Agreement
Driving is a privilege that I may lose by
violating this agreement. This privilege may be suspended for other reasons
such as (but not limited to) unsatisfactory school grades and violations of family
trust.
I will obey any curfews or restrictions imposed
by my driver's license.
I will obey all traffic laws and speed limits.
I will not drink and drive, or use illegal
drugs, or drive if I am taking ANY medication that may affect my driving.
I will not ride with anyone whom I know or
suspect is under the influence of alcohol or drugs (legal, or illegal).
I will not permit any open or empty containers
of alcohol, or transport anyone who I know or suspect may be carrying illegal
drugs in any vehicle I operate.
I will not ride in any vehicle where I know
there are empty or open containers of alcohol or where anyone who I know or
suspect may be carrying illegal drugs.
I agree not to drive with or transport anyone
who is in possession of any weapon.
I will always wear my seatbelt and shoulder
harness. I will not ride in any vehicle in which there are more people than
seat belts.
I will make certain that I can always hear
emergency vehicles and traffic sounds.
I will drive defensively.
I will avoid being a distracted driver,
particularly avoiding texting or operating a cell or smartphone.
I will not transport passengers unless they are
properly secured by a seatbelt.
I will always wear a helmet if I am driving or
riding on a motorcycle. I will not transport a passenger unless he or she also
wears a helmet.
I will drive in a manner that respects the
safety of myself, my passengers, other drivers
and pedestrians.
I will ignore peer pressure. While driving, I am
in control. I can stop and ask others to leave my vehicle and, as a passenger,
I can ask a driver to stop and let me out.
I will not drive unless I feel safe and certain
of my ability.
I will be especially alert during dangerous
conditions such as rain, snow, sleet, wind, heavy traffic, fog, unlit roads, construction
zones, and accident scenes.
I will always lock every door and take the keys
when I leave the vehicle. I will park in areas where I believe the vehicle will
be safe from damage or theft.
I will obey the driving instructions of my parent(s)
and of law enforcement officers.
