AT&T offers teens advice on driving over the holidays

AT&T has issued a press release with tips for teen drivers who plan on hot-rodding around over the New Years holiday. Here are some of the helpful nuggets AT&T has to offer (italics added by us):

  • Make safe driving your most important call. If you think a wireless phone call will be distracting, either don't answer the call or just hang up.
  • Never use your phone to take pictures, send and read messages, record video or watch TV while driving.
  • Avoid stressful or emotional conversations while driving.

    • So, you heard them kids. Just hang up on your mother when your on the phone, don't watch TV when behind the wheel, and do your best to not get emotional when you find out your friend just crashed because he was drunk behind he wheel. Such sound advice. In fact, just don't drive or use your phone, period, over the holidays. :-)

    Thanks for supporting teens on save driving tips. Did you know that talking on a cell phone while driving, a test was done to measure the effect of distraction (impairment) for teens whilehaving a cell conversation even hands free was the same as blowing a .08 alcohol blood level. We need more support to help teens.
