Training Objectives

Implement proactive strategies to eliminate in-car distractions before driving
Advocate for a safe driving culture by leading by example and speaking up

Course Overview

Safe driving is a commitment that begins before you ever put the vehicle in gear. While individual focus is key, true safety comes from a collective culture of accountability.

This training short provides actionable strategies to protect yourself and those around you, such as finishing your breakfast, grooming, and GPS routing before starting the engine. You will learn the importance of leading by example, driving phone-free to inspire friends and family to do the same.

Most importantly, we discuss the power of speaking up when you are a passenger in a distracted driver's vehicle. By treating driving as a dedicated task rather than a multitasking opportunity, we can work together to reduce accidents and save lives.

What is the most effective way to prevent distractions?


Prepare everything—including your seat, mirrors, GPS, and music—before you start driving so your full attention remains on the road.


How can I help friends or family drive more safely?


Encourage them to drive phone-free and lead by example by putting your own devices away whenever you are behind the wheel.


What should I do if I am a passenger and the driver is distracted?


You should speak up and let the driver know that their distracted behavior is making you feel unsafe.


Is it okay to eat or groom if I am stopped at a red light?


No; you should complete all personal tasks, including eating and grooming, before you begin your trip to ensure you are ready for changing traffic conditions.


Why is "leading by example" emphasized in driver safety?


Peer influence is a powerful tool in creating a safer driving culture and reducing the overall number of accidents caused by distraction.
