Safety campaign challenges drivers to Buckle Up and put the Phone Down

McPherson County Sheriff's Office is challenging drivers to ditch the distractions and focus on safety.

The goal is to bring awareness to two simple actions — buckling up and putting the phone down — to reduce traffic fatalities. Drivers can expect to see increased law enforcement on local roads and highways during the statewide safety campaign which runs Oct. 20-31.

Driving safely demands your full attention. Any non-driving activity you engage in is a potential distraction and increases your risk of being involved in a crash.

Phone use while driving, specifically calling and texting is one of the most common distractions. Sending or reading a text takes your eyes off the road for approximately five seconds. At 55 mph, that's like driving the length of an entire football field with your eyes closed.

Kansas law prohibits drivers from using a handheld cell phone while operating a motor vehicle in an active school zone, where a reduced speed limit is enforced. It’s also prohibited in active construction zones while workers are present and signs are posted. Devices are still allowed to be used in hand-free mode.

The campaign coincides with Buckle Up Phone Down Day on Oct. 28th— a day when all drivers are encouraged to make the pledge to buckle up and put their phone down on every trip.
