WACO, Texas – Daniel Stark Injury Lawyers is raising awareness about the “100 Deadliest Days of Summer,” the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day when traffic fatalities among teens rise significantly. Their goal is to educate parents, guardians, and teens, and provide resources to help families stay safe on the roads during this high-risk time.
The firm wants to shed light on the dangers that are historically associated with teens driving during these summer months. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), crashes involving teens throughout the summer are often consequences of distracted driving, speeding, and driving while intoxicated.
“Too many families are devastated every summer by preventable tragedies,” said Spencer Smith, attorney at Daniel Stark. “We want to empower parents, teens, and all drivers with the tools they need to make safer decisions behind the wheel.”
To broaden the campaign’s reach and impact, Daniel Stark Injury Lawyers has partnered with Allie’s Way, a nonprofit organization whose mandate is to end distracted driving and save lives.
By joining forces with Allie’s Way, Daniel Stark aims to amplify the message that distracted driving can take many forms including texting, adjusting music, eating, or simply daydreaming, and that any distraction can be deadly.
The firm is also producing public service announcement (PSA) videos, distributing educational materials, and sharing Allie’s story to personalize the statistics and encourage proactive safety measures.
The campaign is about spreading awareness and equipping families with tangible steps they can take to reduce the risks. The firm outlines six key strategies:
- Set Clear Expectations – Establish driving rules and potential consequences for unsafe behavior.
- Be the Example – Model responsible driving habits for teens to emulate.
- Have the Tough Talks – Discuss the real dangers of speeding, distracted driving, and impairment.
- Limit Solo Driving – Encourage supervised driving as skills and maturity develop.
- Planifique con anticipación – Help teens prepare for safe trips, including sober ride arrangements.
- Keep the Car in Shape – Ensure vehicles are well-maintained and teach teens basic car care.
“Awareness is the first step toward prevention. We’re using our platform not only to support accident victims but to help stop these tragedies before they happen,” said Leany Hammer, attorney at Daniel Stark.
Families, educators, and community members are encouraged to join the effort by talking to teens, setting clear expectations, and supporting organizations like Allie’s Way. For more information on the campaign, PSA resources, or how to get involved, visit DanielStark.com.
