This July, AARP Driver Safety is celebrating its 45th anniversary by providing useful tips and resources to help you stay safe behind the wheel.

ELIMINATE DISTRACTIONS
According to the most recent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA) data from 2021, 13% of reported motor-vehicle crashes were the result of distracted driving. Actions that can make a difference include stowing your phone away completely out of sight and properly restraining your pet safely in a crate or harness.
