Hey guys,
Late last week I was asked to speak in Frankfort, KY for the transportation cabinet of Kentucky press conference. During this conference, I will be speaking to many people including the transportation cabinet of Kentucky, police officers, and local high school students. I want to ensure that after I give my presentation that people have a greater sense of the dangers of texting while driving. I have prepared a PowerPoint to accompany my presentation. I want everyone to visually see what impacted me, hoping that it impacts them as well.
The main ideas I want to communicate
- the safety issues involved with phone use while driving
- my ideas on how to alleviate the growing distracted driving problems
- how to raise teen awareness of the issue
- how my own experience negatively impacted my life
I have lived through a terrible accident that resulted from me making a poor choice, and I want to use my second chance to spread awareness of the dangers of distracted driving. My experience has opened my eyes to the real problem and I am trying to help fix it. The ultimate goal of my speech is to encourage laws to be passed which would make cell phone use in the car illegal. I am sure not everyone would be excited about the prospect of more strict driving laws; however I think these laws are important to ensure the safety of everyone. I just want to get my story out there for everyone to hear and understand, so maybe when they pick up their phone while driving, they second think, and maybe save a life.
I leave tomorrow morning, wish me luck!
