Moms & Dads

 

Around the US, 11 teens die every single day because of distracted driving.That is 77 dead teens every week, and over 4000 deaths a year of our children.

 

You care about the safety of your family. You pay the insurance. You own the car. You want you and your family alive and well at the end of every day. Not at fault or a victim of a distracted driver accident that kills and injures over a thousand people every day in the US. As of November, 2010, 30 states, DC & Guam have passed laws making texting illegal while driving. TextQ is the answer to your young driver being able to focus on driving and still answer that text or voice call instantly. And keep them from being a Distracted Driver Culprit.

 

There is no going back to the minute before the accident happened. No depth of sorrow or regret brings back the 16 people a day from death. Or heals the 1300 people a day injured because the driver was reaching for, talking on, or texting on his/her cell phone, or any other reason the driver was distracted. TextQ focuses on the driver who is distracted because of the use of cell phones while driving. Simple Solution: Have an app on every family member’s phone that sends an auto reply to callers and texters.

 

We are asking Insurance Companies to give incentives to families who use TextQ auto-response.

Woman killed in text messaging accident

CHINO VALLEY - Vinnie Sorce knew something was wrong when he saw a police officer pull into the driveway. He immediately sent his three children, two boys from a previous marriage and a little girl with his fiancee, to their rooms so he could talk to the officer outside. "Time just froze," he said.

Sorce's fiancee, Stacey Stubbs, had headed to Phoenix for a doctor's appointment.

She never made it.
