As a teen, how do you talk to your friends, parents, and even your siblings about the very real dangers of reckless and distracted driving?That is the very question Impact Teen Drivers began asking in 2007 while educating young drivers and passengers in schools about poor decision making behind the wheel. Teens across the United States all said the same thing, "let US do the messaging." Impact Teen Drivers created the Create Real Impact Contest to ask young people, ages 14-22, to show how they would talk about the number one killer of teens in America.
Young people enter to win cash and prizes by showcasing art, music, video and creative writing to address reckless and distracted driving and solve the problem. It's that simple. This unique opportunity allows for a safe and expressive platform to speak out and create real impact. Over the past two years, we have received entries representing all 50 states and Washington, D.C. We receive over 100,000 votes cast through a network of friends, loved ones, and young drivers and passengers raising awareness to stop distracted and reckless driving behaviors. Now it's time for a new contest and even more entries and votes. If you're eligible to enter, what would you say and how would you say it? Three easy steps to enter: Make it, Upload it, Submit it. |
All qualified entries are judged in two ways.
Once by your friends and family Oct 7 – Oct 12 The Online Top Vote Getter wins prizes. Second by the judges Oct 13 - Oct 16 Judges will determine the Grand Prize Winner based on the following criteria: 25% concept/creativity, 25% execution of the idea, and 50% effectiveness of the message. Online voting in no way influences the decisions of the panel of judges. Winners will be notified October 17, 2017 by 3:00pm PST. Formal announcement of winners October 19, 2017. Impact Teen Drivers is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization educating teens in schools on the dangers of reckless and distracted driving.
