Save a Life Tour Teaches Students the Dangers of Distracted Driving

A diverse group of people sitting on the floor, attentively watching a television screen in a cozy living room setting.

The Save a Life Tour, sponsored by New York State’s STOP-DWI Foundation, recently presented a workshop to Deer Park High School’s health classes. This distracted driving program informs, educates and demonstrates the potentially deadly consequences resulting from poor choices and decisions made by the operator of a motor vehicle, specifically regarding cell phone use and passenger activities. The students engaged in distracted driving simulation, surveys and informative visual learning stations during each 41-minute class period.
