No Texting and Driving Pledge
Take the No Texting and Driving Pledge! Now is the time to Take The Pledge for No Texting and Driving!
Tips to Meet Your Goal for the Pledge
• Install an anti-texting application in your cell phone!
• Turn off notifications before you enter your car!
• Place your phone out of reach in the car!
• Assign a designated passenger to read and text for the driver of the car!
Don’t Become a Statistic
• Over 100,000 car accidents annually involve texting, according to the National Safety Council.
• Texting drivers are 23 times more likely to be in an accident, according to the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute.
• Both reading a text and sending a text while driving creates the risk of a car accident. Car accidents are associated with some of the most devastating orthopedic and brain injuries, as well as, death. If a person survives a texting and driving accident, they may be subject to serious fines and penalties.
Take the Pledge today! There may be serious financial consequences for both the person texting to a driver and a driver texting.
