1) Give students 15 minutes to research and list 10 traffic safety facts/statistics/information (remember to have them cite the source.)
2) Have each student decide on one fact/statistic/information to highlight.
3) Each student then develops an infographic showing their fact/statistic.
4) Distribute them! Have your class/students decide how they can best get the information out. Maybe they compile all infographics into a newsletter, plan a social media campaign utilizing them, print and post flyers around school. print individual infographics and have students pass out at dismissal, use them as toilet tabloids inside bathroom stalls, the list is endless.

Organization: Educational Alternatives - Oklahoma Challenge
About Your Organization: The Oklahoma Challenge was created in 1984 to address the dangers of teen drunk driving and encourage young drivers to wear their seat belts. Following great success in these areas, Oklahoma Challenge turned its attention to a rising concern - the dire problem of distracted driving, especially among people 15-20 years-old. Working in partnership with the Oklahoma student groups, the Oklahoma Challenge has endeavored to educate teens about the dangers of engaging in distracting activities - such as texting, talking on the phone, and applying make-up - while driving. From the beginning, the Oklahoma Challenge has been unique from other initiatives in that it empowers student leaders to go back to their schools and put on the awareness activities themselves – teen to teen. By focusing on peer-to-peer communications instead of an adult-driven campaign, the messages about the dangers of distracted driving are more likely to make a lasting impact. In fact, research shows 44 percent of teen drivers say that they would be thankful if a passenger complained about their texting while driving.
