Share the Keys: Safe Driving Orientation for Teens and Parents at Peapack & Gladstone Library

Teens and their parents are invited to the library for a safe driving conversation.

Developed by Kean University in partnership with the New Jersey Division of Highway Traffic Safety and New Jersey State Police, Share the Keys is designed to reduce teen driver crash risks by increasing parental involvement. The orientation aims to ensure that parents and teens fully understand the risks and responsibilities associated with driving and use a variety of best practices as they navigate this important life responsibility. During the program, teens and parents will take a look at all aspects of the Graduated Driver License (GDL), learn how adults’ behaviors behind the wheel affect their teens’ driving behaviors, and discuss ways they can reduce the likelihood of a teen accident.

For more information or to register for this program stop by the library’s circulation desk, call the library at 908-234-0598, or contact Adult Services Librarian Diane Hahn at dhahn@sclibnj.org.
