Have you ever responded to a Text message while you were driving? Or maybe inputting a new location in your GPS? If so then you know the dangers of distracted driving. Distracted driving has catastrophic effects for those who are unable to concentrate and then create what results in a near fatal and sometimes fatal accident. On a loud speaker, a 911 call is played and triggers an emergency response by police, fire, paramedics and a coroner. They all show up to the mock car crash scene. Actors are involved in staging a simulated car collision instigated by driver error on a road way or in a parking lot. Firefighters use the “Jaws of Life” to remove one actor from a mangled vehicle while another actor is declared dead on arrival and carried off by the coroner. Another driver is arrested for driving under the influence and is booked for Vehicular Manslaughter. The dramatization is amazing, shocking, and it will make you THINK! Oct 22nd in Green Mountain Falls there will be a demonstration on just what happens when a distracted driver causes an accident. Please let everyone you know, know about this and attend it with your children so that they will learn not to do the same mistake.
