The Daily Drive: Educating Parents and Teen Drivers

Join us for a conversation Michelle Johnson. Her son Connor was killed in 2011 in a vehicle crash in which he was a passenger. Through education, Michelle is now on a mission to shift our driving culture to a culture that is distraction-free. Hear her story. 

We're excited to have our friends Jacy Good and Steve Johnson from Hang Up and Drive on the show. Jacy and Steve met as freshmen in college. They had plans for their careers and lives tougher, but just hours after receiving their diplomas they were thrown into a world of tragedy and overwhelming sadness. Hear their story and their journey to advocacy. 

Whatever the behavior or environment, there are about 1.25 million fatalities from traffic crashes around the world each year, and many are preventable. Join us for a conversation with Coordinator of International and Special programs for the Ford Motor Company Fund Kyle Green to learn more about addressing challenging and changing global traffic safety needs.

Teens are more likely than any other age group to be involved in a drowsy driving crash and now teens might be headed back to school after six months at home. How we can return to a healthy sleep schedule to prevent drowsy driving?

Join us to for a conversation with the Governors Highway Safety Association to learn the causes and the signs of drowsy driving as well as what parents can do to help their teens get sufficient sleep.
