Distracted Driving

1 minutes 19 seconds

LOFT students illustrate two different distracted driving scenarios. Scenario one shows possible outcomes when the driver does not appropriately communicate their needs as a driver who is deaf or hard of hearing. In version two, a teen driver effectively communicates their needs to the passengers in the car. One of a series of videos produced by Leadership Opportunities for Deaf Teens (LOFT) and sponsored by Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard Hearing (AG Bell).
