Why the Chevy Trailblazer Is a Confidence Booster for First-Time Drivers
There’s no such thing as a “light” driving day in New Jersey. Between rush-hour tailgaters, pop-up thunderstorms, and the eternal mystery that is Route 80 construction (seriously, are they ever going to finish?), putting a teen on the road can feel like signing a permission slip for chaos and crossing your fingers for divine intervention.
That’s exactly why the Chevy Trailblazer earned a well-deserved shoutout in Nielsen Editorial’s guide to the safest vehicles for teen drivers in NJ.
The Trailblazer checks every box for NJ teenagers (and their parents): compact enough to squeeze into the tiniest parking spots, high-riding for better visibility when everyone else forgets how to use a blinker, and smart enough to step in when your teen’s reflexes are still catching up — or when they’re distracted trying to unwrap a hoagie at a red light.
With standard Chevy Safety Assist, it includes Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist, and more, all working behind the scenes to keep new drivers safe during their steep learning curve on real-world roads that often resemble a live-action video game.
And with an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ badge on its resume, the Trailblazer has passed the toughest safety tests in the business. It’s the kind of SUV that makes parking at the high school a little easier, navigating potholes the size of bathtubs a little smoother, and merging onto the Parkway a lot less likely to inspire creative new swear words.
Because when your kid’s behind the wheel, the last thing you want to worry about is whether the vehicle can keep up. The Trailblazer can and then some. It’s basically a rolling safety net (just with cup holders).
