HANDS FREE DRIVING CONTEST
The Kiefer Foundation established the Hands Free Driving Contest as a way to motivate young people to come up with inspiring messages to end distracted driving.
The contest spanned June 21 until Sept. 3 during the “100 Deadliest Days” between Memorial Day and Labor Day when teen car crashes increase significantly.
“Every single video articulated the importance of ending driving distracted,” said Kiefer. “Some were powerful and, truthfully, tough to watch. Others were fun and upbeat. All showcased the power of looking to young people for ideas.”
