Due November 22nd, 2013 - Did you know that texting takes your eyes off the road for an average of 4.6 seconds–and at 55 MPH, that’s like driving an entire football field blindfolded? I Drive Safely knows learning how to drive is a huge challenge for teens. And they want to ensure teens develop the proper safe driving habits right off the bat. That’s why they are launching a Distracted Driving public awareness campaign by kicking it off with an effort just for teens: The ‘Watch Out Loud’ Teen Video Contest.

Teens ages 15 to 19 are invited to create an original video discouraging teen drivers from driving distracted. Videos should not exceed two minutes in length.
