Project YIELD is the student organization at William Howard Taft high school that promotes safe driving practices.
More than 5,700 young people died in car accidents nationwide in 2001. The latest year is reflected in the current statistics. In San Antonio, teenagers died in a car accident in the six weeks of the same year, some of whom were Taft students. Last year, the Texas Department of Transportation and the Texas Department of Transportation worked with Taft authorities on plans to prevent a similar tragedy. In-house recruitment activities created a team of 24 students, who later hired the group name "Project YIELD" (a young man who provides information to all living drivers). The "carefree driving kills lives" campaign is the fruit of their creative work.
This week, William Howard Tuft High School students launch the state's first teen-developed campaign aimed at making streets and highways safer. This week's campaign launch includes daily pre-spring break announcements, posters around the school, promotional materials, and campaign focal points. This is a 3-minute video written by a student who also stars in the production. The campaign is based on the five most common risk factors for young drivers. Driving at night, inexperienced driving, presence of young passengers, risky behavior (such as speeding, using a mobile phone while driving, not using a seatbelt), and alcohol and drug use.
