Keep your Eyes on the Road

Keep your Eyes on the Road Keep your Eyes on the Road is dedicated to helping to educate teens in particular about the dangers of texting while driving.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that driver inattention was a causative factor in 25-30 percent of all police-reported traffic crashes. In 2009, almost 5,500 people died and another half a million were injured in crashes involving a distracted driver. Distraction-related fatalities represented 16 percent of all traffic fatalities in 2009. Texting is the number

one distraction behind the wheel for teen drivers. According to the CDC, motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for teens. One-third of all deaths in this age group are motor vehicle related. In 2009, eight teens ages 16 to 19 died every day from motor vehicle injuries. Per miles driven, teen drivers ages 16 to 19 are four times more likely than older drivers to crash. It is time to stop these needless deaths and educate our children about the dangers of texting while driving. Keep your Eyes on the Road is sponsored by the Law Office of Stuart DiMartini.
