NYSTLA’s End Distracted Driving Campaign Comes to Chappaqua

As a part of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association's (NYSTLA) work with the national End Distracted Driving campaign, NYSTLA attorney Robert Greenstein will speak to 200 Horace Greeley High School students and parents to raise awareness of this critical issue on March 19th at 7:30pm.

Distracted driving is not just texting or using your cell phone. Just a few seconds spent changing the music or reaching for a drink can cause drivers to lose control.

Thousands of lives are lost each year due to distracted driving. The distracted driving campaign was started by Pennsylvania trial lawyer Joel Feldman after his twenty-two year old daughter Casey was struck and killed by a distracted driver in 2009. Trial lawyer associations from across the country, including Rhode Island, Indiana and Pennsylvania have joined the End Distracted Driving campaign to educate teens on safe driving.  Nearly 50,000 students across the country have viewed the presentation.
