“A ‘must’ presentation for the educational system. Powerful and realistic scenarios that make the students believe in what could ultimately happen.”
~Dolena Ward, Career Centre, LA Matheson Secondary
“The difference with D.I.A.D. is that it provided an all rounded presentation. The impact of the presentation is greater by including all perspectives and therefore D.I.A.D. provides any audience with a powerful, life changing presentation. I believe all communities should be proactive by having this presentation!” ~ Karie Ackerman, Executive Director, Ponoka Victim Services Unit with the Ponoka RCMP Detachment
“This presentation was quite intense but in the necessary way. The facts given to us were eye-opening. The word I would use to describe the presentation is necessary. Students should sit through the presentation, especially since we are all new drivers and we are under the impression that we are invincible.”
~C.B., High School Student, British Columbia
“I spoke with some of the students and their reaction was you guys were the best guest speakers all year, so obviously they were listening.”
~ Sarena Richard, CCA, Johnston Heights Secondary School

Distracted Driving Prevention: Education & Advocacy

We deliver reality-based, interactive multi-speaker presentations throughout Canada about the dangers and consequences of distracted driving.

There are three forms of distraction: cognitive (mental); manual & visual, including texting, talking on hand-held devices, in-car passengers, adjusting music settings, eating, personal grooming, dressing/undressing, reading & allowing pets to travel on laps. All these activities contribute to taking eyes off the road and attention away from the demanding task of driving.

D.I.A.D.’s dynamic presentation is unlike anything else in Canada, delivering a powerful message with a combination of knowledge, personal experience, energy and humour.

D.I.A.D. Drop It And Drive works in partnership with the Surrey Fire Service; Young Drivers of Canada; the Surrey RCMP and with the support of Klein Lyons to deliver high energy, interactive talks.

Contact us to find out more information or to book a presentation at your school, college, university, community group, organization or corporation. Our elementary & high school presentations are 'NO FEE!' & fee-based sessions directly support those school presentations.
