Research has shown that distraction from cell phone use while driving – either hand-held or hands-free – delays a driver's reactions as much as having a blood alcohol concentration at the legal limit of .08 percent. Remember that Pennsylvania law prohibits sending, reading or writing text-based communication on devices such as cell phones while driving. Visit www.JustDrivePA.com for more information.

While you are traveling over the Thanksgiving holiday, make sure everyone from infants to grandparents is properly restrained. In a 30 mile per hour crash, an unrestrained adult is thrown with a force of 3½ tons – about the weight of an elephant. Click It or Ticket and avoid taking a flying elephant along for the ride. Learn more about Pennsylvania’s seat belt laws at www.JustDrivePA.com.
