Distracted Driving Awareness Month

The National Safety Council has made training material available to employers for “Distracted Driving Awareness Month”.

Members of the National Safety Council get “Member Exclusive Content” beyond what is made available to the general public.

Distracted Driving Awareness Month

  • Technology allows us to make phone calls, dictate texts or emails and update social media while driving – all actions that are proven to increase crash risk. The National Safety Council observes April as Distracted Driving Awareness Month to draw attention to this epidemic. NSC wants empower you to put safety first and Just Drive.

    Resources to Share

    Create awareness in your workplace, your home or community bysharing the distracted driving message. NSC offers infographics, a poster, fact sheet and a number of social media-friendly graphics.

    Pledge to drive cell free. You can pledge to your children or other loved ones that you will be an attentive driver. Share your pledge on social media if you’d like.
