Paragraph 2


When monitoring teens as they are driving, there are many devices that would come in handy on the market today.  Some of the devices will help to deter young drivers from many of the bad behaviors that can cost them their lives.  One device that can give a small feeling of security is one that limits the speed of the car from exceeding a set speed. For some people, GPS software would be more helpful and allows the parents to see how and where their kids are driving.  If alcohol does become a major factor in the safety of the teens, breathalyzers can be used, which prevents a car from starting when a driver is over the drinking limit.  These are just a small portion of the devices available that are on the market.
Monitoring devices should be put in teens’ cars so as to monitor mileage; this will help parents to know where their teen(s) are and how far they traveled, helping them to know if they went past their boundaries.  These monitoring devices could also give warning signals when speed limits are reached or about to be passed, allowing teens to be warned that they are going over, and they need to slow down. If students continue to speed, these devices will alert the police and guardians.   A speeding ticket would then be sent by mail to the teen when they break the law.  Another device that should be installed in student vehicle should monitor cell phone use.  Cars will become a “black zone” for cell phones while the car is in motion.  Since texting is another cause of teen accidents, this will help keep students safe.
