Handing the keys to a new driver is a significant moment for any parent in Florida. Chevrolet developed Teen Driver technology to help parents coach their new drivers even when they cannot be in the passenger seat. This built-in system offers a suite of customizable features designed to encourage safe driving habits from day one.
Teen Driver is a built-in system integrated directly into the Chevrolet Infotainment 3 display. It is not a subscription service and does not require an app. Parents create a four-digit PIN in the settings menu to register a specific key fob. When the teen uses that registered key to start the vehicle, the system automatically activates the selected safety settings and limits.
The system allows parents to configure specific parameters to ensure their teen drives responsibly on I-95 or local surface streets.
One of the most valuable tools for coaching is the in-vehicle Report Card. This data log tracks driving performance and allows parents to review it with their teen to identify areas for improvement. The Report Card is password-protected and displays:
Teen Driver technology is standard equipment on the vast majority of the current Chevrolet lineup. You can find this safety feature on these popular models at Gordon Chevrolet:
No. The system settings are protected by the four-digit PIN created by the parent. The teen cannot alter the settings or view the Report Card without this PIN.
No. The system restricts certain behaviors, such as speeding or playing loud music, but it does not disable the vehicle. The Buckle to Drive feature only delays shifting out of Park for a brief period.
Teen Driver is a standard, built-in feature on equipped Chevrolet vehicles and does not require OnStar or a monthly data plan to function.
Helping your teen develop safe driving habits is a priority. We invite you to visit Gordon Chevrolet in Orange Park to learn more about how this technology works. Our team can show you how to set up the PIN, register a key fob, and customize the settings for your family.
