ERIE Announces Winners 2014 Shift -

They came, they learned and created. Now REA is proud to announce that schools have won the top prizes in the annual contest Shift.

Now in its third year, Maj encourages teenagers to creatively share safe driving tips and experiences with their peers. Teens who participated in Maj gained points by completing activities such as signing a commitment safe-driver, create and vote on videos safely pilot, and share safety messages their peers.

Adolescents with the most points won cash prizes for themselves and their schools. This year was also the first year for the award for best video. (That honor went to Corey Householder Barbara Ingram School of Arts in Hagerstown, Maryland Discover the "No art" winning video above.).

The following is a breakdown of Shift winners and their prizes:

  1. Thousand Islands High School

  2. Barbara School Ingram Arts
    Hagerstown, Maryland, 5000 $
  3. Punxsutawney School

in addition, the first and second place for students received $ 1,500 and $ 500, respectively. Other students quarters of winners received Amazon gift cards of $ 100.

Ultimately, all students who received the safe driving message was Maj winners. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that while adolescents account for only 14 percent of the population of the United States, they account for about twice the motor vehicle injuries.

Erie Insurance worked with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) to perform an exclusive analysis of data on the Ministry of Transportation of the United States crashes. It shows how countries compare in terms of relative danger of deaths from car accidents when teens are behind the wheel.

By making teens aware of the dangers on the road, Shift aims to help reduce the number of car accidents involving teens.
