Distracted Driving Awareness Month

Date of Event:

April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month across the nation, and the Streamwood Police Department is urging drivers to drop their phones and focus on the road with a not-so-subtle reminder: “Phone in One Hand. Ticket in the Other.”

In support of this effort, the Streamwood Police Department is partnering with the Illinois Department of Transportation, the Illinois State Police and more than 200 local law enforcement agencies around Illinois the entire month of April.

The distracted driving campaign is administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation with federal traffic safety funds.
