Road to Responsibility Scholarship

Scholarship Sponsored by Aronberg, Aronberg & Green, Injury Law Firm

Overview

For 27 years Aronberg & Aronberg, Injury Law Firm, has counseled clients on the physical and legal consequences of reckless driving. This scholarship invites students to produce creative work—such as a poem, song, short film, graphic, cartoon, or essay—that illustrates the dangers of high-speed or reckless driving and promotes safer choices. The program is intended to raise awareness among young drivers and to encourage critical thinking about cultural portrayals of fast driving. Submissions will be reviewed and a scholarship awarded to a student whose work effectively communicates the risks and importance of safe driving.

• Organized by Aronberg & Aronberg to promote traffic safety awareness.
