AAJ Members Alerting the Public to the Dangers of Distracted Driving
Posted by: Michelle Widmann
April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month. Distracted Driving occurs when drivers take their full attention away from the road and instead attempt to either multi-task or focus on texting, talking on a cell phone, grooming, adjusting a radio, or attempting other activities.
Distracted Driving is an all too common occurrence in our society today. And it is a dangerous issue that must be address immediately. In fact, studies indicate that each year Distracted Driving results in thousands of deaths and hundreds of thousands of injuries.
In an effort to draw attention to this epidemic and make our communities a safer place to live, many AAJ members across the country are joining forces with The Casey Feldman Memorial Foundation, 60 For Safety, and EndDD.org will provide End Distracted Driving campaign presentations at hundreds of schools, community groups, civic organizations and other gatherings.
