Read Driving With A Teenage Brain A State Trooper Notes On How To Stay Alive Richard Kasper 9781978219250 Books
A common-sense driving book for teenagers, which recognizes and addresses the difference between the teen brain and that of an adult.
Parents, investing in this book for your teen will teach them how to survive while learning to drive rather than becoming another teenage statistic. It won’t teach them how to parallel park, make a three-point turn or how to pass a written test. They can easily learn these skills elsewhere. This book will provide the tools for your teen to recognize and avoid hazardous situations and unsafe drivers. It will show them how to train their inexperienced, teenage brains to make safe, split-second decisions when life-threatening events occur. In this book I have shared the knowledge gained over many years of driving, to help keep your teen alive while driving. Now help them to understand and apply this knowledge. Don’t just give them this book. Make sure they read it. Quiz them on it, especially the chapter on Defensive Driving.
Reviews by Law Enforcement Professionals
“Investigating traffic accidents - especially those resulting in death or serious physical injury - is one of the most difficult jobs facing a police officer. When those accidents involve young or inexperienced drivers, the task is especially agonizing. With an emphasis upon driver safety, this very comprehensive book is an excellent resource for teenagers and parents alike, and I highly recommend it!†Daniel Carlson - Captain, Assistant Director of Training, New York State Police, Ret.
Rich, thanks for letting me review your book. It’s obvious you put a lot of effort into it, drawing on your unique experiences. I especially liked your personal stories and all of your common sense, practical advice! You have provided an informative life-saving guide for everyone hoping to avoid a motor vehicle accident. I am confident you will make better, more thoughtful drivers with your insights. Each of my own grandchildren will be receiving a copy of this book as they prepare to get behind the wheel and hit the road. Excellent job! Lars Jarvie - Chief of Police, City of Mesa, Arizona, Ret.
Richard Kasper has developed a common-sense guide for those who don’t always use a great deal of common sense. I wish that this book existed when my sons were learning to drive. Nicely done! Ben Wolfinger - Sheriff, Kootenai County, Idaho
Great information even for me, an old retired cop of 34 years. Having raised five children and worked with youth in Boy Scouts and church activities, I can attest that, while they are wonderful people, teenagers act like teenagers. The information in this book may save a teen’s life. Thanks for writing this, Rich. I will share it with my kids. Gordon H. Gartner - Chief of Police, Town of Payson, Arizona, Ret.

"Great book for teens. The explanation of the brain development is excellent for teens to read. The poor decisions they make at times is not their fault which is why it’s very important never to drink and drive. Drinking only puts them at more of a disadvantage!"

- A friend of mine told me about this book. I read it and I am impressed. How can you possibly remember, or know, all of the life saving topics and situations that you should be telling your teenager when they learn how drive, and when they leave your driveway as a new driver ? This book is your answer.
The author tells teenagers what they need to know in up front language that they can understand. Interesting personal experiences and situations have made it an easy to read book for teens. As an adult and experienced driver, I have learned informative facts from this book that I was never taught when I first began driving.
This is a great book. I have ordered copies from my grandchildren who are close to driving age.
A very well done book that will give parents, and their kids, the facts they need to know about starting out in the world as a driver. Ease your mind and get this book for the teenagers you love. - Great book for teens. The explanation of the brain development is excellent for teens to read. The poor decisions they make at times is not their fault which is why it’s very important never to drink and drive. Drinking only puts them at more of a disadvantage!
- I have read more than half of this book and have been very impressed with the practical common sense advice and instruction that is given. It is written in common language that every one understands instead using technical terms as used by traffic engineers and law enforcement officers. Us older experienced drivers can benefit from the recommendations and suggestions the author offers as young drivers just starting to drive. It would be an excellent resource and reference for driving training instructors, also. A lot of information for a small price.
Cecil Hathaway, PhD and retired Professor of Transportation and Traffic Engineering. - Made our kids read this book before they could take the car out! Great discussion piece as we prepared our girls to start driving independently. Thank you.
- Added a copy of this excellent resource to our grandson’s Christmas gift. As a new driver, we are looking for ways to encourage him and equip him for the challenges of the road.
- A comprehensive collection of practical information and driving tips - and the reasoning behind them - for new drivers. It's a great gift for teenagers who are looking forward to getting their license soon so they can practice good habits from the start.
- An excellent resource based on both research and the author's experience. Very well written and highly recommended!
- Wonderful insight. My son is reading it and really understanding the concepts. Nice work, Mr. Kasper.
