What is Toyota Driving Expectations?
§ A free program that puts newly licensed teens (and teens with permits) into the classroom for instruction, and behind the wheel on multiple defensive driving courses.
§ A program that offers parents insight into the challenges facing teen drivers and provides recommendations and countermeasures for any driving concerns they may have.
§ Fully funded by Toyota and endorsed by both the National Safety Council and the Federal Highway Administration.
Toyota Driving Expectations goes beyond what is currently taught in typical driver's training classes in order to help teens identify and react to dangerous driving situations. To better understand the critical relationship between distractions and reaction time, both teens and parents navigate a driving course while drinking water, listening to loud music and talking on a cell phone. They also experience hard braking maneuvers on wet and dry pavement and maneuver through multiple slalom driving courses under the watchful eyes of professional drivers.
We are writing you today to ask for your support in spreading awareness of this program within your school. Our goal is to educate teen drivers and parents alike. Below, please find a link to download a flyer with more information on Toyota Driving Expectations for distribution to students and parents:

Thank you in advance for your help in keeping your student drivers safe behind the wheel.
Sincerely,
Michael Rouse
