Getting your license is a rite of passage and Kelley Blue Book recently released their Top 5 Cars For Delaware Teens.
KBB has released their list of the Best Cars for Teens: The List Every Parent Needs. The list includes the safest cars for new and teen drivers.
According to KBB “In the United States, the fatal crash rate per mile driven for 16 to 19-year-olds is nearly three times the rate for drivers ages 20 and older. The most significant risk is at ages 16 and 17. In 2020, 60% of deaths among passenger vehicle occupants ages 16 to 19 were drivers of the vehicle. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), motor-vehicle crashes are the second leading cause of death for U.S. teens. In 2019, nearly 2,400 teens age 13-19 in the U.S. lost their lives in crashes. That’s an average of roughly seven per day.”
KBB also says that all cars aren’t equal when it comes to teen drivers. “While newer models will likely offer more advanced safety features and driver assists than older models, a new car’s price may not be realistic for many families. When you plan your budget for a vehicle, it may also be wise to factor in the potential cost of repair and bodywork” according to KBB.
