Criminal Justice. Her heart lies in helping others and creating a world of positivity and

opportunity. She has a passion for service which is why she will be pursuing a graduate degree

From all of us here at Sutliff & Stout, we would like to congratulate the 2018 Sutliff & Stout First

Step Scholarship Contest recipient, Maya Thomas

Young Drivers are Disproportionately Killed in Motor Vehicle Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of death for 15 – 24 years old. According to the

U.S. government, 3,154 people were killed and approximately 424,000 people were injured in

motor vehicle crashes involving distracted drivers in 2013. The actual number of accidents due

to distracted driving were likely much higher.

It is not debatable whether distracted driving is a public safety problem; it is. The problem is

particularly pervasive among young drivers. We must find a way to stop distracted driving.

The first step towards changing any behavioral change is to admit that a problem exists. Many

of us criticize others for their distracted driving habits, but how many of us are willing to look

inward to examine our own choices behind the wheel?

The “First Step” to Distraction-Free Driving Scholarship

In an effort to reduce the devastating consequences of distracted driving among young drivers,

the Houston auto accident lawyers at Sutliff & Stout are offering a $2,500 scholarship to

students.

Review the “First Step Scholarship” Privacy Policy.

Overview

We are asking students to write an essay of at least 500 words detailing their most common

distracted driving habits, and to describe the concrete steps they will take to put an end to

those habits.

Eligibility Rules

Applicants must be EITHER out-going high school seniors (graduating summer 2019) OR

students currently enrolled in a college, trade school, or university as of the start of the

fall 2019 semester.

Must submit essay by Thursday, August 1, 2019

What do I need to write about in my essay?

We want to encourage students to examine their driving habits and identify ways in which they

commonly become distracted behind the wheel. These could include obvious examples such as

texting, tweeting, or changing music, or a less obvious example like turning to talk to friends or

simply playing the music so loudly that they cannot hear other vehicles. Next, we want students

to consider and document concrete steps to ending those distracted driving behaviors.

What is the deadline for submission?

Applications must be received by no later than Thursday, August 1, 2019.

When will the winner be selected and notified?

A winner will be selected by no later than Thursday, August 15, 2019. Apply Now

PTAC CREW SCHOLARSHIP FOR HVAC STUDENTS

We know what you’re thinking: “Seriously? PTACs? What the heck is a PTAC? Is it as cool as

blockchain or artificial intelligence?” We get it; we thought the same thing. And, as it turns out,

the answer is: yes, it’s pretty cool (after all, PTACs are basically air conditioners).
