April - Distracted Driver Awareness Month

From the Algonquin Police Department: April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month. In 2020, 3,142 people in the U.S. were killed as a result of distracted driving. Cell phone usage while driving is a moving violation that comes with a fine starting at $164! Illegal cell phone usage is not limited to texting, but also emailing, FaceTiming, social media, video streaming, playing games and much more. We urge motorists to #DropItAndDrive.
