About this listen

The DriveSafeRideSafe Team created this podcast to help create smarter, safer drivers at any age.

Our Driver Ed courses include enrichment activities that our students need to do with their parents throughout their course. Each enrichment is used to teach students about real life driving situations. Students and parents must perform and send us their observations.

Over the 10+ years of doing collecting these enrichments, we have found that our student observations give us great insights on how we can help other parents from being thrown under the bus and we can all become better drivers.

While Mike is our driving guru with all the knowledge, Natasha is the keeper of these enrichment gems and each week we want to share these gems with you through our podcast.

We also hope that listeners will interact with us by sending us feedback or their own experiences behind the wheel.

    What Parents Say About our Driver Ed courses:
    *****EXCELLENT!
    I am extremely happy that I came across this driver's education option for my 15 yr old son. I greatly appreciate the emphasis on safety, defensive driving, handling peer pressure, and making good choices. I will use this program for my daughter in a few years when she needs to complete drivers ed and I whole heartedly recommend it for any driver! Benedict's Mom
