Protect yourself and your loved ones: P​ark the phone and pay attention while driving

​​You see it, and it’s so aggravating. That vehicle ahead of you, slowly drifting in and out of the lane and onto the shoulder. You notice the driver holding their phone, actively engaged in conversation, or they’re looking down, glancing up occasionally to check the road.  ​

Tragically, distracted driving is more than just an annoying behavior. It's killing and seriously injuring people across Minnesota and leaving devastated families behind. The stories are heartbreaking.
