Get Involved With National Teen Driver Safety Week (NTDSW)

Join the thousands of committed teens, parents, advocates, and policymakers in raising awareness of and creating solutions for reducing teen crash risk during the next National Teen Driver Safety Week – October 17-23, 2021. Whether you organize your own campaign or tap into another’s, it’s important to keep the momentum going by supporting National Teen Driver Safety Week (NTDSW). We can reduce the number of crashes involving teens behind the wheel by keeping this public health crisis front and center, both locally and nationally.

If you’re looking for ways to get involved with NTDSW, consider using one (or more) of the following themes most important to teen driver safety stakeholders:

• Inexperience
• Distracted Driving Prevention
• Graduated Driver Licensing
• Seat Belt Use
• Speed Management
• Impaired Driving Prevention

While many of you will share teen driver safety messages in schools to support NTDSW, others may choose to conduct campaigns in their community or workplace or with law enforcement. Support NTDSW and get the conversation started.
