Auto Club Membership Gives Moms Confidence In Their New Teen Drivers
When moms see their teen daughters or sons get their driver's license
, they know that their child is on the road to independence. Most moms worry about their teens when they are out driving their vehicle. Concerns can include a vehicle break down as well as the fact that teens are at a higher risk of car accidents than other age groups. Fortunately, auto club memberships give moms peace of mind when their teen is out driving in the day, night, or on a long road trip.An auto club membership is much like an investment in your teen's safety. Roadside assistance is of particular importance for a teen driver. The roadside assistance services provided with an auto club membership can include: vehicle towing, changing a flat tire, boosting a dead battery, and bringing out fuel and other fluids such as motor oil and anti freeze.
As well, a technician will be sent out to replace lost or stolen car keys and even help a teen get into their vehicle if they accidentally lock themselves out. As well, with a dead battery, a technician will be sent out to test, diagnose or even replace the battery right there at the location of the break down. This type of service provides moms with peace of mind knowing that no matter what time of the day or night their teen is on the road, assistance from an auto club is only a phone call away. It is available 24 hours a day, 365-day-a-year, even holidays
An auto club member can also receive help with auto repairs. They know what standards to look for in a quality auto repair shop. Their recommended car repair facilities have been screened and inspected. They go by government and consumer agency reviews and keep a check on the repair shop to ensure they meet high quality standards.
Auto club memberships can also offer driver training for new drivers. They can provide a list of reputable teen driving schools that will help them improve their driving skills. A benefit of driver training will often translate into savings on the teen's vehicle insurance. Some auto clubs offer teen driver fairs that educate teens and their parents about safe driving. This includes showing teens how to properly use gas and brake foot pedals, safety-belts, mirror adjustments, changing a flat tire, checking fluid levels, and making the proper seat-height adjustments.
Auto clubs will also offer driving assistance in the form of personalized road maps, trip routing, and an online map service providing directions. They can often be customized personally for maps to such areas as schools, theater, restaurants, recreational facilities, and other points of interest to the teen.
Teens are at a high risk of an accident when driving and often can drive with less care than an adult. When their teen is driving on the road by themselves or with their friends, a mother will worry until she sees the car pull up the driveway. Purchasing a membership in an auto club will significantly reduce that worry giving mothers peace of mind when their child is driving.
