Report warns parents about teens driving unsafe cars

Thursday, July 17th, 2014 Auto Liability

Many teenagers drive smaller,cheaper, cars with little crash protection or safety technology. Now the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety says many cars aren’t safe, and it’s compiling its own list of recommended used cars for teen drivers. It’s a rite of passage for millions of teenagers every year. First the permit, the license, then the new wheels. But research suggests that teenagers are far too often driving cars that simply aren’t safe enough. In a new report, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety warns parents they could be sacrificing safety for affordability.
