Rep Power: 314

Rep Power: 279

I guess that this is what you get for being dumb. SOrry bro

PS. IMO... NEO GENS Suck get some better tires lol.

 
Rep Power: 251

hopefully you learned a lesson in all seriousness. It's usually hard for me to sympathize for people when something bad happens but they COULD HAVE prevented it and know what the consequence can be. Take risks but not risks that are not this dangerous. alot of people i know make fun of me on how i drive or where i park but I do it cuz i care about my car, myself, and the safety of other people.

At least you didn't get hurt but think really hard about it next time you try to take a turn at 80

 
Rep Power: 283

okay. this is my last time to post in this thread before i give up hope.
can you please answer my questions?
1. How Old Are You?
2. Why were you going 80 around a corner?
2a. Was it a race?
2b. Were you running for something?
2c. Were you just testing your car's limits?

Arizona Teen Driver

Welcome to Arizona Teen Driver, a single resource for both parents and teens drivers. Here you will find out the facts for getting a driver's permit, license, driver education, defensive driving techniques, insurance, car facts, and other useful information. We want our teens to be safe and confident drivers. The leading cause of death of Arizona teens 15 to 20 years old is car crashes. The number one habit that saves lives is wearing a seat belt. So, please set an example and insist that all passengers buckle up all the time!

Licensing FAQ's
1. When can a teen get a driver's license?

A driver must be at least 15 years and 7 months old and pass the written exam to receive a class G driver's permit. A permit must be held for at least 5 months. The earliest age that a teen can receive a class G driver's license is 16.

2. What kind of testing is done?

You will need to pass a written exam and vision test for a driver's permit. When seeking a driver's license you will have a road test unless you have taken a qualified driver's education course.

3. Do I need my parents permission?

If you are under 18 years old, a parent or legal guardian must sign the legal guardian section on the driver license application. You will need 2 forms of identification such as a original birth certificate and social security card. You will need to provide your social security number.

4. Where can I get the Arizona Driver's license manual?

You can pick up a free copy from your local Motor Vehicles Department. For MVD locations, and to download the manual, please go to MVD

5. Where can I get answers to more questions?

Arizona, like many other states has a GDL or Graduated Driver Licensing law for teens under 18 years old. In January of 2004 the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rated Arizona's GDL laws as "poor" among all fifty states. Although the current law is not as restrictive as other states such as California, it is designed to phase in driving privileges as a young driver develops skills and maturity. Sixteen year old drivers have the highest number of crashes of any age group. States with strict GDL laws such as limiting the number of passengers or late night driving restrictions for 15 to 17 years olds, have shown a significant improvement in reducing teen crashes and fatalities.

In Arizona, a class G license is issued to a driver under 18 if he or she has passed the exam, taken an approved drivers education course, or has had at least 25 hours of supervised driving ( 5 hours at night) with a class D licensed driver. A class D licensed driver is at least 18 years old.

Although not mandatory, a parent can adopt some of the stricter guidelines of GDL for their teens. Some recommendations are:

1. Set a minimum of 50 to 100 (20 at night) hours of supervised driving. Let your teen drive you everywhere and in different weather conditions. Start with a parking lot, then quiet streets, busier streets, the freeway, and night driving.

2. After your teen has received his or her driver's license continue to include some supervised driving, but also set some restrictions on night time driving and the number of passengers in the vehicle. Set a curfew for night driving and remember that statistically the risk of car crashes and death increases significantly as the number of passengers goes up.

The states that were rated "good" by the Insurance Instiitute for Highway Safety for their GDL laws included the following measures:

1. A minimum of 6 months during the learning phase.
2. Night time curfew of 10pm or earlier until 5am.
3. No more than one passenger when driving unsupervised.
4. Issuance of an unrestricted driver's license at age 17.

Driver's Education
It may come as a surprise to many parents that driver's eduation classes in public schools has been on the decline over the past 10 years. Many school districts have opted to close these classes because of budget constraints. We highly recommend that students take a course in driver's education. The public school programs are more comprehensive because of the number of hours that is spent in class. Because of the hours, students can earn a 1/2 credit towards high school graduation. If your school district does not offer a program, look into a summer program outside your district or consider one of the many state licensed private driving schools. Summer school programs usually charge a fee.

Other schools to consider are defensive driving and advanced driving schools that can better prepare a student for emergencies that will not be experienced in a classroom or in regular behind the wheel driving. Some of these schools use state of the art simulators that police use for practice and others are held on a racetrack where students can practice crash avoidance.

Lastly, Traffic Survival School for those with ticket citations can be an excellent refresher and safety course.

Private driving schools offer many options that can be more convenient for students. For behind the wheel training some schools will have the instructors pick up the students from their homes and return them after the session is completed. Although flexible and more convenient, private driving schools have a fee that is usually higher than public summer school programs. The following schools are licensed by the State of Arizona.

Advanced/Defensive Driving Schools
There has been a growing need to provide more advanced and defensive driving techniques for teen drivers. These schools are not licensed driving schools in the traditional sense by the State of Arizona because they do not cover the full spectrum of classroom and behind the wheel training. Two local schools have specific courses that reinforce safety, advanced training and defensive driving.

Located in Scottsdale, Driving MBA, provides state-of-the-art technology with their driving simulators. These simulators have been used by police for driver training. The simulators can put the driver in all types of weather conditions such as fog or snow, and can simulate scenarios such as tire blowout, child darting into street, or a car crash ahead. As airline pilots train on cockpit simulators to prepare for crises and emergencies, students can be prepared and trained to face behind the wheel crises and emergencies as well.

What does car racing have to do with safe driving? Race car drivers are the safest drivers in the world because of their profession. Traveling at speeds over 100 mph drivers have learned how to get out of skids, avoid crashes, and maintain control of their vehicles.

The Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving has a teen program that teaches young people how to avoid crashes and road hazards ahead when travelling at high speeds, how to maintain control, how to get out of a skids, and many defensive driving manuevers. Students actually get behind the wheel on a race track speed, brake, turn, and accelerate. Students experience first hand what it is like to lose control of a car and how to correct properly. By far the costliest form of driving school, the skills taught can help save teen lives which is invaluable.

Traffic Survival Schools
An unfortunate consequence of breaking the traffic laws, such as speeding, usually results in a ticket that is costly and has points attached. Some violations can have points waived if the offender attends and completes a traffic survival school. Not attending traffic school can increase your insurance premiums considerably. If you accumulate 8 or more points within any 12 month period, you may be required to attend traffic school or your license may be suspended for up to 12 months.
