Stop the Texts. Stop the Wrecks.
Grades: High School
Subject Area: Health, Driver Education
Made Possible By: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and The Ad Council
Enlist your students in this nationwide campaign to alert teen drivers to the dangers of texting behind the wheel. Students conduct in-class experiments to learn how 5 seconds spent texting can have deadly consequences on the highway, and develop their own social media outreach to spread the word that texting means you’re driving blind. Includes an interactive e-newsletter for students to share with friends and family.
