Tips for protecting teen drivers during 100 deadliest days

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The period between Memorial Day and Labor Day typically sees a spike in deadly crashes involving younger drivers, according to the American Automobile Association, or AAA. It's become known as the '100 deadliest days' for teen driving. AAA reports teen drivers are nearly three times more likely than drivers aged 20 and older to be killed in a crash. Daniel Armbruster, a spokesperson for AAA in Texas and New Mexico, said it's in part due to the inexperience of younger drivers. 'But also we know this increase that we see in summer time is because of the fact that kids are out of school. They have more freedom and less supervision, and so they tend to behave in a way that is more risky behind the wheel,' Armbruster said. He highlighted speeding, impaired driving and distracted driving as some of the top factors contributing to crashes. According to AAA, 60% of all teen crashes involve a form of distraction, from smart phone use and texting to other passengers in the car. 'Talking, conversations can occur when you have several young people in a car, and the driver can become distracted,' Armbruster said, emphasizing the need for the state's graduated driver's licensing law. It restricts the number of people in the vehicle allowed with a teen driver to one person under the age of 21 that is not a family member. AAA also offers 'Dare to Prepare' workshops for teens and their parents to raise awareness. The free, 75-minute interactive or in-person workshop highlights the roles and responsibilities of driving, how to pick a safe vehicle and what to look for in a good driving school. Armbruster serves as an instructor for some of these workshops. 'A lot of times, teens come in, and you can see it on their face, right? 'Oh, a workshop my parent made me come to.' But they leave with a gratitude because they've received a lot of information that is helpful in not only saving their lives, but also the lives of everyone on the road,' he said. Across the country, 13,135 people died in a crash involving a teen driver between 2019-2023, according to a AAA review of crash data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. In Texas alone, 1,463 people died in teen crashes during that same period. Approximately 30% of those deaths occurred during the 100 Deadliest Days between Memorial Day and Labor Day. AAA's review went on to show that, on average, eight people are killed per day in teen-involved driving crashes in the summer, compared to seven per day during the rest of the year. In his experience with the Dare to Prepare workshops, Armbruster said the knowledge is as important for parents as it is for teens. 'If you are speeding, if you are driving distracted, they are more likely to pick that up,' he noted. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Doors getting kicked in during new 'ding dong ditch' prank, NKY police say

Police in Northern Kentucky are investigating four reports of kids kicking in homeowners' doors during a new social media variation of the "ding dong ditch" prank. The twist is that instead of just knocking on the door and running away, some pranksters are completely destroying the victim's front doorway, police said. On social media, Florence police called for parents and guardians to keep an eye on their children's whereabouts to prevent a prank from turning into a tragedy. "Being awoken at 3 a.m. by someone forcefully kicking a front door could lead a homeowner to believe a break-in is occurring, potentially prompting them to take defensive action," the department said in a June 2 Facebook post. Police Detective Todd Manning told The Enquirer the department has also seen similar reports from residents across other cities in Kenton and Campbell counties in Northern Kentucky. Florence homeowner Sherri Souder says her home was hit by the social media trend during this past Memorial Day weekend, according to Enquirer media partner Fox 19. Souder said she woke up before midnight thinking she heard an explosion, only to check her cameras and see a kid kicking in her garage door. "Ding dong ditch" pranks have long been around and there are countless examples of modern spins across TikTok and other social media platforms. However, it's recently received more attention due to a deadly incident in May. Just a month ago in Virginia, a teenager was allegedly shot and killed by a homeowner while filming TikTok "ding dong ditch" prank videos with friends. One of the teen's friends was also shot and treated for minor injuries. The teens told police they were shot while running to hide after knocking on a door.

'100 deadliest days' begins for teen drivers. What to know in Florida

The "100 deadliest days" has begun. That's the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day AAA describes as the time when crashes involving teen drivers spike. During that time, on average, eight people lose their lives every day in a teen-related crash, AAA said in a news release. There are 456,754 teen drivers on the road in Florida, according to the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. As of May 5, 2024, 205,000 Florida teens between the ages of 15-19 were driving with a learner's license. Here's what you should know, as both a parent and a teen driver. "The stretch between Memorial Day and Labor Day is known as the 100 Deadliest Days for Teen Drivers — a period when crashes involving teen drivers spike, leading to tragic consequences," AAA said. AAA's review of crash data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration showed there is a 30% increase in deadly crashes involving teen drivers during summer compared to the rest of the year. On average, eight people lose their lives every day in a teen-related crash between Memorial Day and Labor Day. "During the summer, teen drivers are on the road more often, usually with friends, which increases the risk of distraction and dangerous driving habits," said Rachel Wilson, director of driver education for AAA, The Auto Club Group. "Many feel invincible behind the wheel, underestimating the dangers of speeding, distractions, and not wearing a seatbelt. But crashes hit different when they happen to you — and by then, it's too late." In 2023, here are the numbers when it comes to teen drivers, according to FLHSMV: Crashes: 19,980 Fatal crashes: 68 Fatalities: 83 Injury crashes: 2,114 Injuries: 3,084 New teen drivers, ages 16-17, are nearly three times more likely to be involved in a fatal crash compared to adults, AAA said. The biggest contributing factors include: Distraction: Nearly six out of 10 teen crashes involve some form of distraction. Teen passengers are the leading distraction, followed by cell phones and infotainment systems. Speeding: Almost 30% of fatal teen crashes involve excessive speed. Driving with teen passengers: Studies show that the risk of a fatal crash increases with each additional teen passenger. Failure to wear a seatbelt: Seatbelt use significantly reduces the likelihood of serious injury or death. "Teens are inexperienced behind the wheel, and that lack of experience combined with risky behaviors is a dangerous mix," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman for for AAA, The Auto Club Group. 'More teens die in car crashes during summer than any other season. Parents must take an active role in coaching their teens and reinforcing safe driving habits." The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said "teen drivers were two-and-a-half times more likely to engage in one or more potentially risky behaviors when driving with one teenage peer, compared to when driving alone." "The likelihood of teen drivers engaging in one or more risky behaviors when traveling with multiple passengers increased to three times compared to when driving alone. In fact, research shows that the risk of a fatal crash goes up in direct relation to the number of teenagers in the car." FLHSMV suggested these tips to stay safe this summer ... and whenever you're behind the wheel: Before you drive: Always buckle up and make sure all passengers buckle up, too. Keep passengers at a minimum. Never try to fit more people in the car than you have seat belts for them to use. Maintain your car's optimum performance. Make sure your car has gas in it. Get directions before you leave. Be responsible, never drive impaired, and never ride with anyone who is under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Don't drive drowsy. While you drive: Obey the speed limit. Excess speed is one of the main causes of teenage crashes. Use your turn signals. Don't blast your music. You might miss hearing a siren or a horn that could warn you of possible trouble. Don't drive distracted. Keep your eyes on the road, hands on the wheel and mind on driving. Share the road with others. Watch out for motorcycles, bikes and pedestrians. Don't leave your car in cruise control when you're driving late at night or when you're tired. Stay alert. Be aware of the weather, traffic congestion and road conditions. AAA urges parents to take proactive steps to ensure their teens are driving safely: Lead by example. Model good driving behavior by avoiding distractions, obeying speed limits, and always buckling up. Provide at least 50 hours of supervised driving practice. Give teens experience driving in diverse conditions— nighttime, inclement weather, highways, and busy streets. Teach defensive driving skills. Encourage teens to anticipate hazards, stay alert, and maintain a safe following distance. Create a parent-teen driving agreement. Establish clear rules about when, where, and with whom your teen can drive. Clearly outline the consequences for breaking the rules and rewards for driving safe. Here's a few things you may not know — or a reminder if you did know — about teens driving in Florida, according to the FLHSMV: Parents can rescind a minor's driver license. The parent or guardian who signs the parental consent form can rescind responsibility for their minor's driving and cancel the minor's license. If teens get six or more points on their license within 12 months, their license is restricted to 'Business Purposes Only' for one year. If teens receive six points on their driving record within a 12 month period, driving privileges are automatically restricted to Business Purposes Only for 12 months or until age 18, whichever happens first. If under 21, there is zero tolerance for drinking and driving. Drivers under the age of 21 with a blood alcohol level of .02 percent or more will have their license immediately suspended for six months. A second offense will result in a one year suspension. Refusal to submit to testing (first offense) results in a suspension of 12 months, 18 months on a second offense. If a teen receives a moving violation conviction with a Learner's License, they have one more year until they can get an Operator's License. If a teen receives a moving traffic conviction with a Learner's License, the one-year period required to hold the Learner's License will be extended for one year from the date of the conviction, or until 18 years old, whichever happens first. Teens must be in compliance with school attendance, or they will be ineligible to obtain or maintain their license. If not in compliance with school attendance, a teen's driving privilege can be suspended until proof of attendance in school for 30 consecutive days has been provided. If convicted of possession of tobacco, minors lose their license for a minimum of 30 days. If convicted for possession of tobacco or nicotine products under the age of 18, the minor's license will be suspended for 30 days or more. There are driving curfews for minors with learner's and driver licenses: Learner's license Hours: Daylight hours for first three months after license issued; until 10 p.m. after three months Special requirements: Always accompanied by a licensed driver 21+; Must hold for a minimum of 12 months or until 18th birthday, whichever comes first; Required 50 hours of supervised driving, 10 of which must be at night. Driver's license, age 16 Hours: Driving is only allowed between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m. Notes: Unless driving to or from work or accompanied by a licensed driver 21+ Driver's license, age 17 Hours: Driving is only allowed between 5 a.m. and 1 a.m. Notes: Unless driving to or from work or accompanied by a licensed driver 21+ In 2023, these were the most common citations issued to teen drivers in Florida: Unlawful speed Careless driving operating a motor vehicle without proof of insurance operating a motor vehicle without a driver license learner license violation failure to observe stop sign failure to display driver license failure to obey traffic control device operating a motor vehicle with an obscured, defaced or no tag seat belt violation This article originally appeared on Florida Times-Union: Crashes, fatalities peak during summer for teen drivers.
