Stay Alive Just Drive

 
Stay Alive.... Just Drive! is a nationally recognized crash prevention, education, and awareness program aimed at promoting safe driving and curbing distracted driving. Studies now prove that 80% of motor vehicle crashes and 65% of near misses are a direct result of driver inattention. Daily, tragic reports from across the United States make local and national news regarding those seriously injured, lives lost, and stories of families left mourning the loss of a loved one.Driving is a privilege, not a right.

Since the introduction of the automobile, distractions have always been a major factor in the safe operation of a vehicle. Distracted driving puts other drivers, motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians in the bull’s-eye. Given the number of distractions in these days of electronic technology, along with eating, grooming and dealing with small children, society needs to accept the fact that distracted driving has become a public health threat.

Sadly, motor vehicle crashes remain the leading cause of death and long term disability, including brain and spinal cord injuries for ages 1 - 44, and the number one killer for ages 15 - 21. Whether you are driving alone, transporting a child properly restrained in a car seat, or driving with other passengers with their seat belts on, CRASHES DON’T DISCRIMINATE! 

We need your help!

By becoming a Sponsor, a member or if you send a valuable donation you can help us help others by increasing safe driving awareness. Every day organizations, businesses, and people like yourself contribute to our nationally recognized distracted driving program. These contributions allow Stay Alive Just Drive to remain the leading activist to bringing awareness and change in legislature on the dangers of distracted driving. Every contribution brings us closer to our program goals and ultimately the safety of our roads and highways.

With the help and support of people like you and those you know, we can and will improve the safety of our streets. Please feel free to donate any amount that is convenient for you no matter how large or small. Any help you can provide will support the continuing efforts of the Stay Alive .... Just Drive! program.

DON’T LET DISTRACTED DRIVING BECOME YOUR NIGHTMARE.
