Using the full course your teen will learn why each step is important while learning the collision-free HABITS that make you a better driver. The full course also includes a section on Social & Consumer Issues. This includes how alcohol and drugs as well as emotions and attitude affect driving performance. Also covered are vehicle ownership (buying, leasing, insuring, and maintaining).

		"The entire Driver Ed in a Box kit was most valuable. It made everything very easy to follow and step by step." - Gracie Palacios, Alamo, Texas
	"Our son breezes through everything academic and is naive enough to still believe good grades translates into good at everything. Without the course he would have ended up in an accident. I am sure of it. Thank you again." - Mary Weseman, Allen, Texas
"I learned many interesting things during this driving program. My in-vehicle experience was a fun and pleasant one. The commentary was a great idea. It allowed my parents to know what was going through my head at that point during driving. It effectively gave my parents the ability to correct my mistakes and make me a better driver. I believe that I am evolving into a collision free driver. I understand all the risks and consequences. These will make me be even more careful than I was going to be before." - Paul Hovis, Arlington, Texas
