Last year alone, over 70 car crashes happened in Richmond because of distracted driving.
It’s simple: tragic accidents like these are not only threats to public safety, but they’re completely avoidable. It’s time for us to start taking action to make our roads and communities safe for everyone.
Mayor Stoney is committing to Vision Zero to reduce deaths and accidents from distracted driving in Richmond because everyone deserves to feel safe in our city. Add your name right now to stand with Mayor Stoney for safer roads >>
Mayor Stoney is pitching a policy to the Richmond City Council that would allow police to pull over drivers who are using their cell phones while speeding, swerving, or avoiding road signs. This ordinance can help make us all more responsible citizens and safer drivers -- all while ensuring that our roads are efficient and equitable.
Listen, no text, tweet, or notification of any kind is worth getting distracted behind the wheel and potentially causing a life-altering accident.
Every day, people are using our roads to take their children to school, get to a doctor’s appointment, or head to work and the grocery store. No one should ever be afraid to do these simple tasks because of dangerous drivers.
With the possibility of this new distracted driving ordinance, Richmond can be a leader for safe roads. Add your name today to stand with Mayor Stoney and demand the end of distracted driving in Richmond >>
Thanks,
Team Stoney
