April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month



April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month:
Please Drivers Put the mobile Phone Down!!!


Even the most LOL-worthy text message is not worth risking your life to read while driving. That’s the message of National Distracted Driving Awareness Month, or as you may know it, April.
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) catchy slogan for its third annual campaign: “One Text or Call could Wreck it All.”
Notably In 2009, distracted driving killed nearly 5,500 people and injured almost half-a-million. Another disturbing stat: 16% of all fatal crashes that same year involved distracted driving.
