Who knows you better than
other teens your age — no one! See
what these teens have to say about The B.E.T.H.
Foundation. We think our presentation is
pretty informative, but don't take our word
for it — take it from them!

"Your
presentation really touched me. I think
it did a great deal to all the people
in my class who thought 'It couldn't
happen to me', and I realized that my
responsibility as a driver is much more
then I thought when I started this class.
I want to thank you for bringing reality
around to the 'immortal' teenagers...
it will probably help to save a few
lives down the road." |

"What
you told us has really made me think
how important it is to stay safe and
know what you are doing behind the wheel
of an automobile. I'm sure what you
said will send out an important message
that will hopefully tell all of my classmates
what can happen to you when you are
driving. I just wanted to say your presentation
really touched me and I know that I
will be forever safe when I start driving." |

"Your
talk to our driver's ed class really
affected me. I was deeply saddened by
what happened to your daughter. I am
so sorry. No one should have to go through
that. I am really glad that you came
and talked to our class; it put a lot
of sense into us. I now realize even
more, to be alert, and careful." |

"You
came to our school today and made me
think a lot about driving. I think that
your speech helped out the whole class
and would have them think twice before
doing something that could change people's
lives! I thank you so much for coming
and talking to us, I know how hard it
is to think about that, but with what
you did you are helping more teens from
being careless drivers and getting into
collisions!." |

"I
thought that your presentation was great!
It made me realize how many risks you
take once you get out on the road...I
think it left all of us with something
to think about when we get our license.
It made a great impact on my visions
of driving." |

"After
having you come into the classroom,every
time I sit behind the wheel I think
about everything that I am about to
do and think twice about every risky
situation I will be putting myself and
others into. Your presentation was a
great one, because it reminds not only
the teenagers in the room, but the adults
about driving. As soon as I get my car,
I will be putting a reminder in there,
so that no matter what, I will think
before driving." |

"I
was very touched by your story. I feel
very sorry for you and I know what it's
like to lose someone. I'm not ever going
to say that it can't happen to me because
I know that it can. Which is something
that frightens me when I do drive. I'm
a very cautious driver but it doesn't
matter how cautious I am it still could
happen to me." |

"I
really am going to be a safe driver
and not take it for granted or think
it is a right. I thought deeply last
night and decided that I was not going
to be mad at my parents for not letting
me get my drivers license until I am
18! I didn't understand when they told
me I was not ready so I have to wait
until I am 18. But I know I will be
thanking my parents in the long run.
I put that key chain on my keys and
yesterday when I unlocked my door I
looked at it and remembered what you
said." |

"
I wanted to thank you for coming and
I think that your message had a very
good impact on a lot of the students
there. I lost my brother in a car accident
two years ago this last December 16.
He was on his way to take finals at
Purdue as a freshman. The one very stupid
decision he made that affected over
3,000 lives was that he chose not to
wear his seat belt. It would have saved
his life. My brother was a Christian
who accepted Jesus Christ into his heart
and life at a young age. I have very
much comfort in knowing where he is
at this moment and that I will see him
again someday. I just wanted to let
you know that your message really touched
me and I found myself really relating
to so much of what you said. I really
enjoyed your web site too." |

"I
just want you to know that this is a
great thing that you are doing. I had
a friend die last summer when a drunk
driver passed on a double yellow line
over a hill. He survived and she was
taken away. So it really hit home when
you talked to us about your daughter
Beth. It was very touching. I just want
to thank you for coming and speaking.
It was really inspirational." |
