PHILADELPHIA, PA (JULY 17, 2015) — Citing new research that shows 7-in-10 people engage in smartphone activities while driving, AT&T and the City of Philadelphia today teamed up to address a dangerous practice—smartphone driving distractions.
To drive home the message and these new findings, AT&T brought a virtual reality simulator to the JFK Plaza in Philadelphia, allowing Philadelphians to experience firsthand how dangerous it can be when you take your eyes off the road to look at a smartphone. The tour is part of the company’s public service campaign known as “It Can Wait.”

AT&T today called on all Pennsylvanians to join together to address a dangerous practice that puts millions of Americans at risk: texting while driving.
For the first time this year, Pennsylvanians can text their pledge to never text and drive. Individuals can text the keyword 'icwpa' to 464329. The pledge — and the text — are free.

Eighteen Philadelphia-area young adults graduated recently from Tech Impact’s ITWorks program and now are equipped with certificates and credentials that will help them secure technology-intensive jobs thanks, in part, to a $20,000 contribution from AT&T. This is the second year that AT&T contributed to the program.

Environmental and social sustainability takes many forms at AT&T. The company invites interested parties to learn more about the company’s community activities by engaging with its website, People | Planet | Possibilities, which shares ongoing updates through videos, social media and blogs.
