Top Driver Launches Teen Web Site Online Resource for Teen Drivers; Win a Nokia 5120 Cellular Telephone
    ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Nov. 15 -- Top Driver, the nation's
fastest growing driver education company, today announced that it has launched
a new web site for teens which can be accessed from Top Driver's home page
(http://www.topdriver.com).  The site will initially provide direct links to
every state's Department of Motor Vehicles, over 5,000 automotive related web
sites, Top Driver's driver education partners, a "drive through window"
offering over 7,500 automotive accessories and a promotional site featuring
monthly contests and giveaways.
    "As a teenager, getting a driver's license provides such an exhilarating
sense of new found freedom and carries with it an enormous burden of
responsibility.  Topdriver.com will ultimately provide teens with a fun and
informative online environment to explore everything they need or want to know
about driving," stated Sebastian Giordano, Top Driver's chief operating
officer.
    The Top Driver Teen Site includes a unique partnership with Getting Real
(http://www.gettingreal.com) which provides all of the content for the
Netscape server's teen pages.  Getting Real, "Where Teens Take Over the Net,"
has developed a co-branded site with Top Driver entitled, Getting Real Behind
the Wheel, which will provide the teen promotional content for topdriver.com.
    The first teen promotion will discuss the proper operation of a cellular
telephone when occupying a vehicle and will include a ten-question quiz and a
drawing to win a Nokia 5120 Cellular Telephone, complete with car mount, rapid
charger, hands-free remote and other accessories.
    With 44 locations in Connecticut, New Jersey, Ohio and Indiana, Top Driver
employs the latest technology in touch-screen computer training, multimedia
classroom instruction and one-on-one coaching in late model vehicles.  It is
the first to deliver standardized curriculum with automobile product and
service information, MetLife Auto insurance services, driving accessories and
Department of Motor Vehicle services.
