In the United States, more than 300,000 teens are injured in car crashes, 8,000 are involved in fatal crashes, and more than 3,500 are killed each year. Every 3 minutes a child dies and every 30 seconds a person is killed or seriously injured on the world’s roads. A proud affiliate of National Organizations for Youth Safety (NOYS), The BACCHUS Network is committed to the success of National Youth Traffic Safety Month. As peer educators have served as change agents on their campuses and in their communities, it is our belief that peer educators ability to raise awareness at the national level and within the global community is of vital importance.
