Road Ready Updates

 Now on Android phones! We are excited to announce that RoadReady is now available on Android phones! We want to thank you for your continued patience as we awaited the funds to make this possible. As most of you now know, Toyota is our new national sponsor in addition to State Farm®, and enabling the RoadReady app for all phones was one of our first priorities. We added some additional features in RoadReady and want to share them with you now. • The online version of the PSDP guide for your state is now available via RoadReady App. While in the app, tap the menu button in the upper left corner, and scroll down to the “Driving Guide”tab. It will open to your state’s PSDP guide. This is handy so parents can quickly refer to a specific skill or subject in the guide without needing to bring the printed guide along with them. • There’s also a new feature in RoadReady, under the tab “My Driving School”. This has been added so that driving instructors can be more involved in the supervised driving experience. With this new feature, a driving school can register via RoadReady, and upon confirmation of their credentials with the state, we then upload their logo and contact info into the app, and they receive an enrollment code. The instructor would then introduce the RoadReady app with their class, and encourage students to download it. Students can enter the school’s specific enrollment code, and then they’re synced with the school. The instructor can see the list of enrolled students within the app, and can track the # of hours logged. They are also able to send push notifications and emails through the app to their students and/or parents. We hope that this feature will be useful and help to improve communication between parents and driver’s ed instructors during the permit phase. This feature is still in a testing phase, but we will keep you informed of its progress. Lastly, October 21st–27th is National Teen Driver Safety Week. Be on the lookout for some materials which we hope you can share with your state DMV offices if possible.
