AT&T recently released a short documentary titled, “The Last Text” which features stories of those whose lives have been shattered due to distracted driving.
The documentary is apart of AT&T’s “It Can Wait” campaign, which hopes to educate its consumers about the dangers of texting while driving.
Although many of us know that distracted driving can be extremely dangerous, some still feel they can safely text while navigating the road. Several states have enacted legislation against distracted driving, but scores of drivers ignore the laws. According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), 5,474 people died due to distracted driving in 2009, with another 448,000 people injured.
AT&T is hoping its documentary will help lessen the numbers of those hurt or killed due to distracted driving.
