Hi everyone! Arrive Alive is well underway and it’s our last campaign of the year so hopefully it’ll be the best yet! This campaign runs until May 4 and is all about campaigning for safe driving and passenger safety among teens during the warm weather months, including prom and graduation, which I know I’m looking forward to!

In other news, spring break is coming up for some and I just want to highlight a few things to make sure we all make it back in one piece. If you have plans with friends, make sure that when you’re traveling from place to place you:

• Have your seatbelt on
• Keep the music at a decent level so that the driver isn’t distracted
• Refrain from showing the driver things on your phone if you are a passenger

Along with that, if you are the driver stay off your phone and keep your eyes on the road. You have a car full of friends and their lives are in your hands, keep them safe.

I hope everyone has a great rest of the year and that everyone does great on finals!
