Reedsville High School has teamed up with AT&T, AAA, and the Wisconsin State Patrol to help teach around 300 students the dangers of distracted driving during an event on Thursday. The campaign is entitled “It Can Wait”, and will feature AAA’s distracted driving simulator, which will demonstrate to the students how dangerous using a cell phone will driving can be. Also as a part of the event, the teens will be shown a documentary put together by AT&T entitled “The Last Text”. The documentary shares real stories from people whose lives were altered or ended by the selfish decision to text and drive. Research shows that while 95% of drivers disapprove of distracted driving, 71% still engage in smartphone activities while driving.
