What Do You Consider Lethal?

Asks teens to rethink how ordinary choices can turn deadly on the roadway

Bring This Program to Your School Download Overview

What Do You Consider Lethal? challenges teens to rethink how everyday choices can become life-threatening, especially on the roadway. Through interactive questions and guided discussion, participants examine how the four types of distraction, speed, seat belt use, and speaking up influence safety outcomes.

The evidence-based program reinforces that most teens want to make safe choices and look out for others. By highlighting positive norms and real-world scenarios teens recognize, participants see how simple, everyday decisions can protect lives and support shared roadway responsibility.

Stories That Drive Change

Real students. Real behavior change.

"I used to drive just a little over the speed limit because everyone does. The program helped me realize how much less time you have to react, even at small increases in speed. I slow down now, especially when other people are around."

Maria S., High School Senior

"I didn't think checking my phone at a stoplight was a big deal until the program showed how fast things can change. Now my phone stays out of reach before I even start the car."

Alex M., High School Junior

"I always wore my seat belt as a driver, but not in the back seat. After learning how injuries actually happen, I buckle up every ride. It feels automatic now."

Jordan K., High School Sophomore

Simply amazing!

"I used to stay quiet when friends drove distracted because I didn't want to be awkward. The program helped me see that speaking up is part of looking out for each other. Now I say something, and most of the time my friends listen."

Kristen G., High School Junior

"What surprised me most was realizing most people want to drive safely. Knowing that made it easier to change my own habits and support my friends when something feels unsafe."

Daniel T., High School Senior
