Driving the Message Contest – Teen Advisory Board Choice

For the 15th year in a row, Teens in the Driver Seat has partnered with State Farm to offer a contest where students can create and submit peer-to-peer posters and videos encouraging each other to drive safely.

The instructions given to the students were pretty simple: Entries must address the issue of driving safety by focusing on one of the following risks teens face behind the wheel or as a young passenger – nighttime/drowsy driving, speeding, distractions, seat belts, impaired driving, pedestrian/bike safety, and/or driving dangerously around large trucks and railroads.

The entries below have been through one round of judging. You may see all rules here>

Winning posters will be utilized in the Teens in the Driver Seat peer-to-peer messaging kits, posted for downloading, and may also be turned into t-shirts graphics and other messaging mediums available for years to come. Videos will also be available for downloading and used within presentations and for marketing.

We invite you to take a look, note the NUMBER of your top 2 choices (1st and 2nd), and complete the voting at the bottom to submit your favorites! Please have your voting submitted by 2/20/2022.
