Amy Parmenter, Manager of Public and Government Affairs at AAA Allied Group, shares details on AAA's campaign equating distracted driving to drunk driving. An AAA poll showed more than 90% of Connecticut drivers agree the behaviors are equally dangerous.
To coincide with National Distracted Driving Awareness Month, AAA is launching a public education campaign that effectively equates distracted driving with drunk driving, in an effort to drive home the point that both are deadly behaviors that should be socially unacceptable.
AAA is launching dramatic new Public Service Announcements that remind drivers: “Don’t Drive Intoxicated, Don’t Drive Intexticated, a sobering message from AAA". Watch the PSAs here: https://vimeo.com/283520390 (Mom version)https://vimeo.com/261524390 (Dad version)
AAA is also urging all drivers-- co-workers, families and friends-- to ‘take the pledge’, not to drive "intexticated". TAKE THE PLEDGE HERE.
