Distracted Driving Awareness Month

4/24/2012

1 Comment

 
April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month and the traffic safety community has a simple message for drivers: One Text or Call could Wreck it All.

Are you aware that in California, where texting and talking on a hand-held cell phone while driving are against the law, road fatalities have fallen by 22 percent?

Closer to home, the Texas Department of Transportation is now encouraging drivers to refrain from engaging in non-driving activities while on the road, particularly cell phone use and texting. In its second year, TxDOT's Talk. Text. Crash. outreach campaign is designed to raise awareness of the horrible consequences of distracted driving.
