Georgia Department of Transportation Launches Safe Driving App “Reach Home Safely”

Publication

Distracted driving is one of the most urgent road safety crises facing Georgia and the United States today. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that distracted driving killed 12,405 people nationwide in 2021, nearly the same amount as impaired driving. The Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) and Cambridge Mobile Telematics (CMT) announced the launch of Reach Home Safely, a safe driving app to improve road safety and prevent crashes. To incentivize safe driving, drivers have the opportunity to participate in a contest to compete for the title of safest driver, ensuring they “Drive Alert Arrive Alive.” Georgia DOT has partnered with the Atlanta Braves for promotion and prizing to support this important initiative.
