CONGRATULA­TIONS on your new driver ’s l i cense! Your l i - cense i s an exciting step toward independen­ce and adulthood, but it’s also a big responsibi­lity. Remember, what you do in the driver’s seat not only affects you but everyone else on the road, too.

We’ve put together some of the best tips for new drivers to help you stay safe and have fun on the road.

◗ Obey a l l t r a f f i c r u l e s : F r o m road signs to right- of- way, there are rules drivers are required to understand and follow. Following the speed limit, leaving adequate space between you and the car i n f r ont of you, obeying t r aff i c signals, and wearing your seatbelt are just a few of them. Learning and applying traffic rules will help you have a safe and relaxed time on the road — and it will help the other drivers around you be safe and relaxed, too. Plus, following t r affic r ules can help keep you away from traffic tickets, which igmionmar rn oeroedlloi­isdanavtet­eb ecir omiatalhns­ilte yTpnns. r amusod sviaeininn­d sguepo fasame hacetmbidg­us, hir oseeeslfrr­uif oirtoceeni­ccle ytsona amnncidoye- smp ae , - e rt

are expensive and could your car insurance rates.

Keep your car in good running shape: Taking care of your car can help you avoid breakdowns and other potential accidents. Car care includes regular oil changes and tune- ups, checking tire pressure ( don’t f or get t he spare!), r egular t i r e r ot at i on, checking brake f l uid and coolant l evels, and filling up the gas tank before it hovers too close to “E.” For your car to take care of you, you need to take care of it. As a new driver, don’t add to the variables of being behind the wheel by letting your car maintenanc­e slide.

Wear your seat belt: Always. And make sure your passengers wear t heirs, t oo. “Among t een drivers and passengers 16– 19 y e a r s o f a g e who d i e d i n c a r crashes in 2018, almost half were unrestrain­ed at t he t i me of t he crash ( when r estraint use was known),” reports CDC. gov.
