The Problem

Teens, particularly girls, in my area tend to drive really close to the car in front of them. I guess some don't even think about it, thinking that they can stop fast enough if need be. WRONG ANSWER! In six months, my sister and I were in three car collisions, all rear-ends and all of which were girls. The last one, though, totaled her car. It is a real bummer when you have to go around with the pain of a collision and no car to go with it.

Plan of Action

We will be distributing bumber stickers that say "Get Off My Tail", just as my photo is, picture included. If you are in the area, watch out for us... we will be handing out the bumber stickers for FREE!!! We will be at Sandpoint High School, churches, grocery stores, etc. We will take donations, as well as purchases for $1 if you want more than one. If you want to purchase one to be mailed to you, please contact me through email, with the subject as BUMBER STICKER PLEASE and I will respond quickly. <<Email addressed edited out by DS Staff.>>Also, donations will go to purchasing more bumper stickers. Perhaps we can get bigger than Sandpoint, Idaho. I would like to start something online. A friend of mine is willing to start that for free. It costs money to purchase the bumper stickers, so the money we earn will go back to that and maybe eventually we can add on to the idea.
