Throwing Your Parents Under the Bus

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.

  • Don't Let Night Time Driving Mess Up Your Fourth of July
    Jul 1 2026

    On this Episode Veteran Crash Investigator and Driver Safety Expert Mike Pehl will teach you how to handle one of the most common and dangerous nighttime driving challenges—how to safely handle oncoming high beams without losing your focus, your lane position, or your confidence behind the wheel.

    The Fourth of July is one of America's favorite traditions—a time for family, friends, cookouts, and spectacular fireworks lighting up the night sky. But when you're behind the wheel after dark and an oncoming vehicle's high beams are shining directly into your eyes, those are not the fireworks you should be watching.


    *****DSRS Driver Ed Course
    I am a parent of 7 children and my first child just got done taking the course. He was worried and nervous, so much so he didn't want to start the drivers course when he turned 15. so we waited to give him time. Now that he's almost 16 years old, we nudged him into taking the drivers course and this course went so well he probably wonders why he waited! I will definitely be returning when the time comes for my other children.

    Predicting what other drivers are going to do is one of the most valuable defensive-driving skills you can develop. While you can never know for certain what another driver will do, you can often spot clues several seconds before they make a move.
