Our Story
The first home my husband and I purchased was at the corner of a busy intersection, and we became concerned that our children could be struck by a motor vehicle while playing at home. We had front row seats to witness countless near-miss auto accidents, drivers seemingly viewing stop signs as “stop optional”! One day we were nearly hit by a speeding and distracted driver during a routine walk in the neighborhood with our dog. It was then I decided that was it! After some research, I learned that a leading killer of children in the U.S. was automobile accidents, and I decided to take action and developed the DRIVE LIKE YOUR KIDS LIVE HERE® message. I received an immediate and overwhelmingly positive response from neighbors, commuters, and community leaders after posting our first lawn sign. Everyone wanted to know where they could get one!
