AT&T’s “It Can Wait” public awareness campaign is focused on a simple, powerful message: No text is worth dying for. Back in April, I spent the day with AT&T and students from Woodson High School in Fairfax County to discuss and experience the dangers of texting while driving. September 19, 2012 is National Pledge Day: http://www.itcanwait.org/. I signed the pledge to never text and drive - and I encourage you to do the same.

A recent AT&T survey found that 97 percent of teens say they know that texting is dangerous. The survey also found:
· 75 percent of teens surveyed say that texting while driving is “common” among their friends;
· Almost all teens (89 percent) expect a reply to a text or email within five minutes or less;
· And 77 percent of teens report seeing their parents text while driving.
Technology can help: 89 percent of teens said a phone app to prevent texting & driving – like AT&T DriveMode – would be an effective way to get them or their friends to stop texting and driving.
