Do you have a teen driver? Well, with summer in full swing it is to be expected that they will want to hit the road for some summer fun, and if that makes you a bit nervous then this week’s blog was made for you! King Kia of Laurel has compiled its tips to keep your teen driver as safe as can be while behind the wheel! But it’s important that you practice what you preach because kids learn from experience, so if you’re speeding, texting, playing loud music, etc. the chance they do the same is much higher. So, take a few minutes to check out these helpful tips below and if you’re in the market for a vehicle for your new driver, be sure to browse our available inventory!

King Kia of Laurel’s Tips For Teen Drivers:

Keep your cell phone off:

  • It’s no secret that texting while driving is a huge epidemic when it comes to all drivers, but especially when it comes to teen drivers. The best thing you can do for yourself is to turn off your phone completely, or if that is too hard for you, put it on airplane mode or a mode that disables messages. It might be hard to not have your phone but it will be better than getting into an accident and hurting yourself or someone else. 

Turn your headlights on:

  • Using your headlights increases your visibility and helps others see you. Even if you think it is bright enough, you should still have them on at times like the early morning or early evening (dusk).

Obey the speed limit:

  • Speeding is a major contribution to teen driving, especially when there is a lot of traffic. Obeying the speed limit is important because it gives you time to react in case you need to come to a stop quickly or something else happens unexpectedly.  

Driving solo:

  • According to the DMV, having one passenger with a teen driver behind the wheel can double the risk of an accident. Teen drivers do not have the experience and skills of an adult driver, having even one person in the car can cause an extreme distraction…now imagine a full vehicle! Driving solo is a much safer bet in most instances.

Practice defensive driving:

  • Always be aware of the traffic ahead, behind, and next to you. It’s better to know your surroundings and have a plan in case an unexpected incident occurs. Stay at least one car length behind the car in front of you at slower speeds, and maintain a larger buffer zone with faster speeds.

Choose a safe vehicle:

  • If possible try to drive a vehicle with the most up-to-date safety features such as anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, and airbags, and one with an excellent crash safety record.

With the new year come many new resolutions! Why not make one of those resolutions to refresh your defensive driving know-how? Your safety and the safety of all of your passengers are imperative and while you’ve probably been driving for years, it’s never a bad idea to practice your defensive driving! So, take a look at our tips below, and be sure to sharpen your driving skills this January! Oh and if you’re in the market for a new Kia with all of the latest safety features, browse our available inventory online! 

King Kia Of Laurel’s Defensive Driving Tips:

  • Always plan for delays in your journey. As pessimistic as it sounds, never trust other drivers. They get into accidents and forget how to drive all the time. If you plan for delays, the best outcomes are that you either arrive at your destination early, or if you hit traffic you won’t be late. Win-win!
  • Focus on safety. When you’re thinking the most about being safe and driving the way you’re supposed to, you’ll drive more responsibly. So, put down that cell phone!
  • If you begin your journey stressed, it’s just going to get worse with every little thing that happens on the way. Listen to soothing music or talk radio, take deep breaths, and remember that you are not in the car forever!
  • Addicted to the horn? Time to wean yourself off. Using your horn makes you angry and it makes everyone else around you angry, and then you have a Dangerous Driving Situation on your hands. That is never good.
  • If you come across another driver who is road raging, stay as far away from them as possible. Let them pass you, don’t cut them off, just let them leave you the heck alone. It’s for the best!

Create more possibilities behind the wheel of the New Kia Sorento Hybrid. Take the unbeaten path – available all-wheel drive w/ 19” alloy wheels let you take your adventure anywhere you want and add a sporty look and feel to your drive.

Inside you’ll find the New Sorento Hybrid is all about comfort and cargo space. The available Smart Power Liftgate automatically opens when Smart Key is detected, revealing a dual-level cargo floor that can hold taller items or conceal valuables. With room for up to seven, the standard 50/50 split-folding third-row seats also fold to expand cargo space if you’re not carrying a full passenger load.

Make connections wherever your adventure takes you in the new New Kia Sorento Hybrid. With Remote Start and Climate Control, you can start your vehicle and set the cabin to a comfortable temperature without ever having to step inside. Now when you’re ready to go, your vehicle will be too.

The large 10.25-Inch Touch Screen with Navigation sits front and center and puts your world at your fingertips.

Winter has officially arrived, and though a white Christmas may have eluded us, we’re facing earlier sunsets and increasingly perilous road conditions. In Laurel, MD, the sun seems to set as early as 4 pm, prompting many in our community to navigate the roads in the dark. Given these circumstances, the condition of your vehicle’s headlights is more crucial than ever. Recognizing the importance of safe driving this December, King Kia of Laurel, MD has put together a comprehensive DIY guide on changing your headlights. Explore the guide below, and if the task seems more challenging than anticipated, don’t hesitate to schedule a service appointment at our Kia Service Center for professional assistance!

King Kia Of Laurel’s Guide To Replacing A Headlight:

  • Open your hood and use the provided prop stand or another sturdy object to keep it securely open.
  • Disconnect the power connector from the rear of the headlight. You may need to gently turn or jiggle it to loosen.
  • Remove the dust cover from the back of the headlight, twisting it if necessary to release.
  • For some vehicles, there might be a clip securing the bulb in place. Depress the clip to release the light bulb.
  • Grasp the bulb housing and gently pull it out. Be cautious and wiggle it if needed, avoiding pulling on the glass or using excessive force to prevent breakage and potential injury.
  • Compare the old and new bulbs by their housings to ensure they match.
  • To ensure the bulb is free from dust and fingerprints, use a pre-moistened alcohol wipe or rubbing alcohol on a dust-free cloth to gently wipe it.
  • Align the bulb housing with the open socket and carefully insert it, ensuring a secure fit.
  • Slide the bulb back into place and twist if required to lock it securely.
  • If your vehicle has a clip, reattach it, and then replace the dust cover and power connector.
  • Turn on your headlights to confirm that the bulb and connection are functioning properly.
  • Close the hood securely and give yourself a well-deserved round of applause!
