Are you training your child to be a dangerous driver?

From road rage to risk-taking, your bad habits will influence the next generation of drivers from an early age

- 

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT HOW YOUR driving habits set an example for your children to copy, and the potential consequences of their driving style being influenced by any dangerous behaviours that you exhibit?

Without question, your kids will be affected by the way you drive. If a turbulent mindset, poor attitude to risk and the odd emotional outburst are part of how you drive, this will automatically have a detrimental effect on how your children will eventually drive - it will be seen by them as normal behaviour.

Taking risks may be part of your driving DNA, but just after your children pass their driving tests they might start using your precarious tactics with such limited experience that they become a disaster waiting to happen.
