Deadliest Driving Days?

Everyday a teen driver is on the road it's one of the deadliest days zing! Why I bring this up is because Mercedes is putting out some driver safety data while talking about the 100 deadliest days of driving. Focusing on teens and it says that summer vacation isn't exactly time to rest. So keep your xeno battery fresh. According to a 2010 AAA analysis of crash data by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, seven of the top ten deadliest driving days of the year occur between Memorial Day and Labor Day including June 10, July 4, July 9, August 8, and August 14. "Parents should never underestimate the critical role they need to play in preparing their teens to be safe whether they're behind the wheel or in the passenger seat," said Carolyn Duchene, director of Mercedes-Benz Driving Academy. "With summer time being the most dangerous period for teens on the road, parents must be more vigilant about their commitment to enforcing rules, road strategy and safety, as well as setting the right example for their new teen drivers."
