Safety advocates, such as the National Safety Insitute and the Department of Transportation announced the creation of FocusDriven, which is a organization dedicated to creating public awareness about the dangers of talking on cell phones or texting when driving.
The organization is patterned after M.A.D.D. and will lobby states for tougher laws for texting and cell phone use in cars. Nineteen states and D.C. have banned texting when driving a car and restricted cell phone use.
Focus Driven will be lead by Jennifer Smith, a daughter whose mother was killed by a driver talking on his cell phone.
