“The text can wait, the call can wait, turn the radio down, put the seat belt on and I think we have to continue focus on the things that are going to save our teen drivers ,and this is really a great program for that.”

Young drivers who are 15 to 19 years old were involved in about 15 percent of all traffic crashes from 2012-2014. Of those crashes, a teen driver was at-fault nearly three-quarters of the time. The crashes resulted in 282 fatalities and 41,311 injuries.
