Le Roy students asked to take the pledge not to text and drive

By Howard B. Owens

Four members of local law enforcement spoke at Le Roy High School today during the three lunch periods about the dangers of texting and driving. The officers shared their own personal stories of the accidents they've responded to, including fatal accidents, that involved distracted driving. On Monday, students viewed a video about texting and driving and a couple of students shared their thoughts on the public service piece. Students were then invited to stop by a poster in one of the hallways of the school and sign a poster pledging not to text and drive.

David,

My guess is that they take the opportunity to state that pledge every morning in school.

There are many pledges. The one you are focused on is one I am a fan of, but there's no reason to ignore others just because you are a BIG BIG BIG fan of it.
