Ready Behind the Wheel

Recently I've gone into the different High Schools in Orem promoting my platform, "Ready Behind the Wheel." Distracted driving is such a prevalent and rampant issue causing motor vehicle accidents, injuries and even death. The truth is that driving distracted is something totally within our control - something we can elminate.
I've collaborated and joined forces with Sgt. Wade Raab of the Orem Department of Public Safety, Traffic Division. This gives me the opportunity to speak in the Orem Traffic Safety Schools several evenings a week and challenge the participants to focus on the road and drive safe.

I've met with the Principals at all of the High School's in Orem and arranged to speak multiple times in each of the High Schools.


I've spoken with the Utah Valley Government Review Council and challenged each of them to make their cars a NO PHONE ZONE.

Steve Densley, Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce President, is on board with being ready behind the wheel.
We can all be ready behind the wheel each time we turn on the ignition of our cars. Let's turn off our cell phones and focus on the road.

Love, Hannah Harkness
