Car crashes are the #1 killer of teens in the United States!

Did you know that car crashes are the number #1 killer of teens and young adults in the United States?   An average of 11 teens die a day due to car crashes. Surprised?  So were we! When driving, please  keep your eyes on the road at all times.  Texting and driving dramatically increases your chances of a car accident.   An average of 80 percent of car crashes are caused by driving distractions and driver innatentiviness for only 3 seconds. Slow down, bucckle up, don't text and drive, live to see another day.
