defensive driving for teens

Consumer reports has a blog discussion of the value of defensive driving classes for teen.  From the blog entry:

It isn't just our informal example that shows progress. According to a recent study by Florida's Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, graduates from a teen defensive driving school had cumulative crash rates 77 percent lower than the general 15-to-19-year-old population.

The blog also has a page with a list of defensive driving classes, many free, available in a state-by-state breakdown. There is a video link on the page to a CBS clip about the training.
