Our signature campaign
Don’t Text & Drive.
A text, notification or social media post can wait until you have parked. Choose to give driving your full attention.
Before you start the engine
Build a phone-free driving habit.
The safest reply is the one you send once you are parked.
- Set your destination before you go. Review directions and playlists before driving.
- Silence the notifications. Enable your phone’s driving mode or Do Not Disturb feature.
- Put the phone out of reach. Store it where you will not be tempted to check it.
- Pull over safely and park. If a message really needs your attention, stop in a safe place first.
- Ask a passenger to help. Let someone else handle directions or messages when practical.
