Safe-Driving Ad Contest Announced

Attention high school students! The deadline to enter is March 23.

Pennsylvania high school students (hint, hint  friends) are invited to enter a state Department of Transportation contest aimed at discouraging distracted driving.

Students can submit a 30-second radio public service announcement, and the winning announcement will be professionally produced and sent to the student’s local media market.

To enter the contest, high school sophomores, juniors and seniors should submit recorded scripts in MP3 or MP4 format. Students may also submit written scripts.
