U Drive. U Text. U Pay.

April is Distracted Driver Awareness Month

On Any Given Day

82% of 17 yr olds own a cell phone and 34% of those say they've texted while driving.

Sending texts, taking your eyes off the road for just 5 seconds, at 55 mph, that's like driving the length of a football field with your eyes closed.


On any given day over half a million drivers are using cell phones while driving. [scary]
Teen drivers are the largest age group reported as distracted at the time of fatal crashes.

Safety Awareness

Protect lives by never texting while driving.  Speak out if the driver is distracted and encourage friends and family to just drive.  Help protect lives by taking the pledge to end texting while driving.

Distracted Driver Pledge

Distracted - not just Texting 

Applying mascara while driving makes you three times more likely to be in a car accident.
