Family Minute with Mark Merrill

Have you taught your teen driver about road rage?

In a survey showing the worst U.S. cities for rude driving, Miami has topped the list for the second year in a row. The most common culprits of road rage? Impatient drivers and drivers who are stressed, frustrated or angry. Don’t let your teen become one of these hostile drivers. Teach them how to stay calm when traffic is jammed, how to be courteous when someone needs to merge, and how to wave thank you when someone lets them in. The best way to teach them? Show them by your example.

Remember your family first,

Mark Merrell
