Save Lives: Keep Your Eyes on the Road


April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month and Vision Zero Houston joins safety agencies across the nation to amplify the same message: distracted driving kills. According to the National Safety Council, at least 8 people are killed every day because of distracted driving.

Vision Zero Houston is committed to ending traffic deaths and serious injuries on Houston’s streets by 2030. Follow these tips to save lives and keep Houston streets safer for all travelers.


  • Distracted drivers are one of the top contributing factors to fatalities and serious injuries crashes in Houston.
  • Put down that cell phone while driving. Consider enacting the Do Not Disturb function on your phone that senses when you are driving.
  • Remember: Sending a text message, talking on a cell phone, using a navigation system, and eating/drinking while driving are a few examples of distracted driving. Any of these distractions can endanger you, your passengers, and others on the road.
  • Drive carefully and watch out for pedestrians, bikers, and people boarding and exiting buses and trains.
  • If you are walking, walk safely. Make sure to always cross the street at corners or crosswalks and walk on sidewalks or paths whenever possible.
