On the road of life, you
will make a lot of decisions. Some will
be good, others will be bad, and a few will
be life changing. The B.E.T.H. Foundation
is an educational program designed to teach
the importance of making responsible life
saving decisions. We are dedicated to helping
teens make good driving decisions to Bring
Every Teen Home.
We want to challenge you
to think about the choices you make. We
want you to drive and survive. We want your
parents to trust you to make the right decisions.
We want you to drive smart and drive safe.
Our hope is that our web site will help
you learn more about being a safe driver,
and will impact the decisions you make when
you are behind the wheel.
How to be a Safe Driver:
- Watch your view — Grab your
sunglasses for those bright sunny days
and make sure your windshield wipers are
in good working condition at all times
- Turn on the Lights — Leaving
your headlights on during the day will
help other drivers see you resulting in
higher visibility and fewer accidents
- Chill out — Driving when
you are angry, sad, nervous, or sick can
cause you to not pay attention to your
driving. Pull over, relax, and calm down
before you hit the road
- Back off — Expand your driving
horizons and leave plenty of distance
between you and the car in front of you
— if it’s raining, double the
distance
- Pay Attention — Too many
distractions make it hard to drive. So,
turn off that cell phone, don’t eat
in the car, apply your lipstick a little
later and just drive!
