How about you and I promise each other something this holiday?
I’m guilty of texting, I know it’s bad/dangerous/stupid and have really cut back on doing it these last couple of months. As of today, no more texting. My wife said it’s like playing Russian roulette (along with some other really strong thoughts). Basically, it’s just dumb and selfish.
I thought you might like to know about “X THE TXT: Thumbs Up to the Safest Holiday Ever,” Allstate’s national public awareness campaign to encourage teens and their parents not to text and drive. You can help by joining the Facebook cause at www.causes.com/thumbsup, and making a virtual pledge not to text and drive this holiday. For each person who makes the pledge, Allstate will donate $1 to the National Organizations for Youth Safety (NOYS) for safe teen driving efforts, up to $25,000.
“X THE TXT” is one of many Allstate initiatives aimed at changing driver behavior and saving teen lives. Our family pledge brochure and other teen safe driving resources can be found at www.Allstate.com/teen. I hope you will consider sharing the “X THE TXT” pledge with your friends and family, to help keep the roads safer for everyone this holiday season and throughout the year.
