April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month
Every day, lives are lost on our roads because of one preventable choice: driving distracted. A text, a call, a quick glance at social media — it can wait. The road deserves your full attention.
This month, we’re joining the statewide effort to raise awareness about the dangers of distracted driving. In Tennessee, it’s not just dangerous, it’s illegal.
Did you know? Sending or reading a text takes your eyes off the road for an average of 5 seconds. At 55 mph, that’s like driving the length of a football field — blind.
Distracted driving claimed over 3,000 lives nationwide last year alone.
Let’s change that.
✔️ Put the phone down.
✔️ Stay hands free.
✔️ Keep your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive.
Because every message, every post, and every call can wait. Your life, and the lives of others, cannot.
