Distracted Driving PSAs and Videos

Addressing growing national concerns about distracted driving, Operation Lifesaver, Inc. is promoting awareness of rail safety for motorists with video public service announcements (PSAs) targeted to younger drivers. The 30-second spots illustrate how distraction leads to danger as multitasking drivers fail to notice that they are approaching highway-rail grade crossings.
