Last fall one of my lacrosse players lost his life in a texting related car accident. He was driving while texting. We are selling t-shirts in his memory with the slogan “Head up for Eagle.” Eagle was his nickname. I would love to incorporate the whole TADD thing at our home game on April 23.
I run the SADD chapter @ Armada High School in Michigan & am interested in purchasing some of the wrist bands that are shown on this site. We are actually focusing our January Monthly Awareness Campaign on this subject & I would really like to incorporate the bands in our efforts. At your earliest convenience, please forward me a price list of such bands.
Thanks so much & Thank You for sharing such an important message!!

I am a member of the city council in Torrington, Connecticut and a liaison to the Mayor’s Committee on Youth. The kids on our committee wish to educate, advocate and promote a strong message regarding distracted driving. I am interested in including your bracelets in their campaign. Can you please advise how I can incorporate the same in the Mayor’s Committee campaign?
I am a SADD Advisor and we are having a program May 2nd on texting and driving. Looking for a pledge the students can sign about not texting and driving in the future. Do you have one you could email me. thank you for your help.

We are currently working on a Festival in the Boca Raton Fl area at thier new UF stadium. We are with the Justin Bieber group that is working towards the prevention of text and driving nationally. You can see that at http://www.phoneguard.com We are contacting all schools on a national level to get behind this movement. The festival is April 28 2012 and we would like to hear from someone from your group in helping us make this a reality. You can reach me by email and I will send my phone number from there. We are pressed for time and it looks like you have your ducks in a row to make this happen. Look forward to hearing from you.

Texting and driving is like the equivalent to driving after having 4 beers. Your eyes are off the road for at least 4 seconds, and within that 4 seconds, SO much can happen. A car infront of you could maybe slam on the brakes to avoid hitting a kitten or squirrel or something, and you wouldn’t realize they stopped… so you would run into them. Imagine how dumb you would feel. It’s not worth it.
I’m curious if I could submit an article to you guys to post on your blog as a guest blogger. I just wrote a paper about the dangers of texting while driving for my college English class. I am also about to start doing a speech on it for my communications class. Would you accept an article from me to post on your blog? If you would like that, could you go to my blog at aguideforwomen.blogspot.com and contact me under the “Contact Me” tab. I don’t want to give my email out to everyone here. I would really love doing this. I was going to post it on my blog, but I think it would be more useful here. Please let me know either way. I could also post a link to your page on my blog if you would like. Thanks!
