No Text on Board - It Can Wait AT&T Giveaway!
Thank you for stopping by little island studios, please subscribe by email to follow along in family fun!
Start your New Year off by pledging No Texting and Driving for safer New Year! AT&T's campaign - It Can Wait has over one million and counting pledges for no texting while driving. PLEDGE HERE to never text while driving!
Every time I go out I have to swerve at least once to avoid someone not driving safely, they are either texting or chatting on their cell phones. Everytime. And I must say the majority of the time it is moms, dads and young adults...not teens, doing the driving and texting!
Those who send text messages while driving are 23 times more likely to be in a crash.
Of all cell phone related tasks — including talking, dialing, or reaching for the phone — texting while driving is the most dangerous.
When drivers read or send a text message, their reaction time is doubled. When asked to respond to a flashing light while texting behind the wheel, drivers were more than 11 times more likely to miss the light altogether.
In my opinion texting and/or talking on the phone when you are with your spouse and/or with the kids is just plain rude. You are in the car together. Enjoy each other. Talk. Laugh. Sing (if you must). Chat about your day, ask them about theirs and actually listen to what they are saying.
Enter to win AT&T's It Can Wait prize pack including a Samsung Galaxy SIII!

Manners matter. And in this case - bad manners are down right dangerous!
So join me and take the pledge to NEVER text and/or talk while you drive! Your kids will thank you for both setting a good example and keeping them safe.

Also...I will definitely be informing my kids about the dangers of texting and driving when they are old enough.
