STATE FARM News:

Local State Farm Agents Abe Dispennette and Lou Santoro have partnered together with Los Alamos High School to help raise awareness for safe teen driving.

First, the not-so-good news: More teens die from car crashes than any other cause. And the first year of driving is the most dangerous.

The good news: There’s something we all can do about it. And it involves a celebration!

That’s what Celebrate My Drive is about – celebrating this big, new life of freedom that comes with a driver’s license. Part of that life means making smart choices behind the wheel, which is why we’re spreading the message of 2N2® – 2 eyes on the road, 2 hands on the wheel. It’s a simple habit that can reduce distracted driving and help new drivers build confidence on the road.

As a community, we can partner with our high school students to help raise this awareness and commit together for safe driving. 

How can we win? The High School with the most votes from BOTH students AND community members will win the grand prize concert of The Band Perry sponsored by State Farm. All you have to do is vote as a community member with your email address on: www.CelebrateMyDrive.com (Search for Los Alamos High School) from Oct. 15-24. The Los Alamos Daily Post will send out Daily reminders to commit. 

Please spend one minute each day Oct 15-24 supporting our teenagers so together we can encourage 2N2® and a safer community. Let’s bring The Band Perry to Los Alamos and give our teenagers an awesome memory of their time here! This is an awesome chance for the community to show our young drivers how much we support them and want them to be safe behind the wheel.
