Trial Lawyers’ Campaign

Thank You for Volunteering to Join our National Network of Volunteer Distracted Driving Speakers

Distracted driving has properly been called an “epidemic.” And this epidemic is worsening.

More than 8 people are killed and nearly 1000 injured every day in the U.S. in distracted driving crashes. Fatal crashes caused by distracted driving are increasing on a percentage basis faster than those caused by drunk driving, speeding and failing to wear seat belts. Our children are particularly vulnerable, with more than 50% of serious teen crashes now caused by distracted driving.

That is why it is so important to educate students about distracted driving. Our science-based high school presentation has been given to more than 525,000 students since 2011. In August of 2022 the U.S. DOT/NHTSA released a study which found the presentation to be effective in changing attitudes and behaviors. By joining our network of speakers you will be joining nearly 400 trial lawyers, nurses, physicians, injury prevention coordinators, teachers, college students, business professionals and law enforcement who are dedicated to keeping students safe. Presentations can be given in classes, i.e., driver’s ed or health, and assemblies. We are gratified by the praise that educators, researchers, law enforcement, businesses, adults and students give for the EndDD.org presentation. Our commitment to you, as a volunteer speaker, is to give you the best presentation and supplementary resources that we can and to make reaching out to schools to schedule presentations and giving presentations as easy as possible for you.

Everything you need to get started saving lives is on this page. If you have any questions please e-mail trial lawyer Joel Feldman, Esq., from Anapol Weiss in Philadelphia, at [email protected] Joel created this campaign in memory of his 21-year-old daughter Casey who was killed by a distracted driver in 2009.
