Watch the Ground Your Parents PSA Videos

The videos that started it all! Parents are notorious for making the excuse that they are “good multitaskers” when it comes to phone use and driving. Your voice can have a tremendous impact on your parent’s decision to drive safe! The Ground Your Parents Campaign Kit gives you free tools to start a conversation with your parents about safe driving, have some fun, and reward safe driving behavior.

Here’s How it Works:

2. Use the form below to officially request your FREE Kit (each kit can accommodate up to 100 students).

3. Once you receive your kit, start getting as many teens at your school to participate as possible!

4. Tag @FLTeenSafeDriver and @StateFarm on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter with photos showing teens/parents using the kit’s materials.
