Port Chester High School students see dangers of texting while driving
Port Chester High School students are signing an “X the TXT” pledge with their thumbprints this week in a safety campaign against texting while driving.
Allstate is promoting the safety message nationwide. Little plastic thumb-bands given out to pledge-takers were a hot item that seemed to be going “viral,” with students seeking them out. They have the words TXTNG KLLS.
Locally, Open Door school-based health centers, the Port Chester Community Cares Coalition and the Fresh Green Light driving school teamed up on the campaign. A similar program was held in Rye.
A school assembly, scheduled for yesterday and today, includes a very compelling documentary from AT&T called “The Last Text.” It looks at the devastating consequences of typing a text while behind the wheel. You can watch it here.
