The NRSF encourages parents to start the conversation around safe driving by being good role models on the road.
The organization said between January and June 2023, 608 people have died on Ohio roads. The NRSF says a lot of that has to do with the fact that teens are inexperienced drivers who can get distracted by their phone or friends in the car.
“They see when you power down your devices and that you're paying attention and that you both have both hands on the wheel when you're driving. They're seeing those things, and when they see that, that's what they're going to replicate when they become a driver." That means finding out what the risks are for speeding, providing oneself with enough stop time while driving and understanding that drivers, essentially, have a two-ton weapon at their disposal.
"If you see someone driving recklessly, or if you see them texting or using their phone, tell them, 'hey, I'll be your designated texter,” she said.
