 and 2,000 of their passengers die every year, and 400,000 kids

are seriously injured, the driving manuals and other literature

 but the driving literature doesn’t warn parents about how

dangerous teen driving is, and why. Meanwhile, every night

 on television we see ads with cars doing 360’s on busy city

streets, crashing through glass, spinning into parking spaces,

 and weaving through dense traffic at high speeds, all without

 a scratch.  Our culture glorifies risky driving. We need a

counterbalance that will caution parents and teens
