In an effort to promote road safety among youth, Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) launched their annual school program.
Students from Scott Collegiate were able to watch MADD’s latest educational video, The Last Dance, a story meant to meet the youth in a new and engaging way.
“The drama is emotional and it connects with them. There can be some tears, but the fact is getting that message across for them not drive impaired is the key point,” said Dawn Regan, the chief operating officer of MADD Canada.
Many of the students who watched the video came away with a clear understanding there are serious consequences to driving impaired.
Don’t drink and drive. It could end you. You don’t know who is in the other car, and you don’t want your own life taken from you,” said one Scott Collegiate student.
