Overview

Mission

1) educate teen drivers about the importance of traffic and road safety 2) promote the usage of safe driving habits with a focus on teen driver seatbelt compliance and curtailing distracted and impaired driving 3) support and advance teen driver education programs 4) instill the importance of civic engagement and making positive contributions to the community by teens 5) assist the Florida department of transportation to ensure a safe driving environment on our roadways

What it reported doing in 2025

Road safety technology - teacher and student resource portals are designed to provide valuable tools for teen drivers and teachers. Drivers ed teachers will find free distracted driving teaching tools, lesson plans and resources needed to make an impact on teens. Teachers and students access daily for updated distracted driving resources, legislation, and safe driving tools. Portals help teachers to educate students about the dangers of impaired driving via our lesson plan that partners with a video "this could be you" follows the story of two teens in prison for killing people while driving drunk. After watching the video, students log on to dorisaveslives.org and answer thought provoking questions. When the homework is completed, students receive community service hours by joining the zero distracted driving movement which educates teens about the perils of distracted and impaired driving, while instilling safe driving habits. It is our estimation at least 100,000 students at Florida schools view this video as part of their classroom ciriculum.
