In a recent blog I suggested to everyone that you should be outraged at the fact that Pennsylvania does not have stricter teen driver safety laws.

Fall is “Back to School” time. This means more traffic on the roads especially in the morning as parents take their children to school. It is also a time when more teen drivers are on the road and we need to be more alert.
