On Tuesday, July 30, 2013, at 10 a.m., at 207 New Toronto Street, the kickoff will take place of the Missing: distracted-driving campaign.
CAA South Central Ontario, the Ministry of Transportation, the Ontario Provincial Police, the Toronto Police Service and members of the Traffic Safety Coalition will launch, for the second consecutive year, a four-week distracted-driving initiative called "Missing." The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness of high-risk behaviours behind the wheel and encourage safe-driving habits in hopes of reducing collisions and fatalities.
The schedule of events for the day:
10 a.m.: news conference Missing: distracted-driving campaign official launch.
10:30 a.m.: Photo Op of distracted-driving obstacle course.
The media, accompanied by Toronto Police Service driving instructors, will be able to get behind the wheel and drive the distracted-driving obstacle course.
Every year we become more and more connected to our mobile devices. Break that connection this long weekend. Don't drive distracted. Help make our highways safe for all road-users.
