Project Yellow Light
Project Yellow Light is a scholarship competition designed to bring about change.
People know distracted driving is dangerous, but they do it anyway. As an applicant you have one clear mission: create a PSA to encourage your friends to avoid distracted driving, specifically using your phone while driving. Whether it’s sending a text, commenting on a photo, or messaging your friends in your favorite app, it’s never ok to drive distracted. Together, we can spread the word and help keep our roads safer.
