Distracted Driving Awareness Month

Distracted Driving Awareness Month

An individual is driving a car while holding a smartphone in their right hand, exemplifying the dangers of distracted driving. On the right side, text reads 'April is Distracted Driving Month,' accompanied by a graphic showing a crossed-out smartphone, underscoring an awareness campaign against distractions while driving.

Distracted driving is an epidemic—one that claims lives every single day. This April, the Drive to Save Lives network is honored to feature speakers Jacy Good and Steve Johnson, champions of the Hang Up and Drive initiative. Their personal stories of loss and resilience inspire meaningful change.

How Schools Can Engage:

  1. Host an Assembly or Workshop: Invite a speaker to share their story with students and staff. Nothing resonates more than hearing firsthand from those impacted by distracted driving. Connect with us today.
  2. Interactive Simulations: Partner with local law enforcement or safety organizations to bring a distracted driving simulator to your school. Experiencing the impact of distractions firsthand is a powerful lesson.
  3. Design a Campaign: Encourage students to create posters, videos, or social media posts highlighting the dangers of distracted driving. Consider hosting a contest to select the best projects for display.

Let’s ensure this April is a turning point for young drivers across our communities; hang up and drive.
