AAA Buckle Up Phone Down Showdown

AAA Missouri, in partnership with the Missouri Department of Transportation, invites schools to join and compete against other Missouri high schools for bragging rights and a chance to win school monetary prizes worth $1,000 to $5,000!

The goal of the Buckle Up Phone Down High School Showdown is to promote and reward safe driving in and around our communities, by putting down phones while driving, encouraging other drivers to do the same, and always buckling up.
