NHTSA Reminds Drivers to Avoid Distractions

Allison, Iowa — The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration calls on drivers to take a proactive role in road safety by following and spreading this message: Eyes Forward. Don’t Drive Distracted.
“Cell phone use and any activity that takes the driver’s attention away from safe driving are distracted driving behaviors,” said Deputy Menken. “Distracted driving endangers everyone on the road including other drivers, passengers, pedestrians and bicyclists,” he said.
According to NHTSA, 16,482 people died and about 1.6 million people were injured in distraction-affected crashes from 2020 to 2024.
In 2024 alone, there were 3,208 people killed in traffic crashes involving at least one distracted driver, accounting for 8% of all traffic fatalities that year. An estimated additional 315,167 people were injured in traffic crashes involving distracted drivers in 2024.
Safe driving requires focused attention. Adopting these phone-free driving habits is key to creating a safe driving environment for everyone on the road:
• Pull over and park in a safe location before using the phone to send or read a text message.
• Ask a passenger to be the “designated texter” and allow them to manage calls and messages during the drive.
• Avoid social media scrolling and any form of messaging while behind the wheel.
• Use “Do Not Disturb” mode to silence notifications.
• Drivers can put their phone in the trunk, glove box or back seat of the vehicle to break the habit of driving distracted.
Cell phone use while driving is dangerous. Phone-free driving and keeping hands on the wheel is committing to keeping all eyes on the road and focusing on driving. Remember: Eyes Forward. Don’t Drive Distracted.

Just want to pay our respects to a WONDERFUL Man and a true blessing to EMS.
I had the honor to meet him and asked him if he would do me a huge favor, one of my friends a HUGE fan wasn't able to be there to meet him so I asked him to call him and Randolph did.
I will always give meds by "popping the tops off".

RIP Johnny!

Hey I just wanted to give everyone who helped us reach our goal of 1000 followers for my lil buddy Ian! Thank you so much! I know asking you to follow is not EMS related content but I think it was the right thing because we all tend to get caught up in life we sometimes forget to live a life. I just love seeing Ian living and sharing his experiences with us! So THANK ALL OF YOU!!!
