SUMMARY:Webinar: Distracted Driving -- Personal and Professional Considerations
DESCRIPTION:Distracted driving persists at epidemic levels despite the efforts of many national campaigns. Why haven’t we been able to significantly change driving behaviors? Perhaps it’s because we haven’t given drivers the right reasons to change. Responders are in peril every time they go to a crash scene because of distracted drivers. It is incumbent on responders to not wait for others to reduce distracted driving\, but to take action now to reduce distracted driving crashes. Fire departments across the country have made distracted driving education for K-12 part of their community risk reduction plans. This webinar\, presented by Joel Feldman\, will walk through new research-based approaches that have been proven effective in changing attitudes and driving behaviors\, and how you can do the same with tested materials.
