Sprint Partners with 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' and Nationwide Driver Safety Campaigns

Five years after creating a free interactive program - Focus on Driving - to educate teenagers on the dangers of driver distraction, Sprint is expanding its mission to support two nationwide programs that educate teenagers and adults of all ages on the importance of safe driving in today's wireless world.

"At Sprint, we believe that education is an effective means to encourage wireless consumers to practice safe driving habits," said Ralph Reid, vice president of Corporate Social Responsibility for Sprint. "With texting while driving making today's teens four times more likely to cause a car crash, we hope initiatives such as these will help wireless users take an active role in making driver safety an obligation, not an afterthought."

Sprint customers can show their support for "The Oprah Winfrey Show" "No Phone Zone" campaign by downloading the Oprah Mobile application on any of Sprint's Android™ and Blackberry®, Palm Pre™ and Palm Pixi™ devices, or by texting "NPZ" to 30644 to take the "No Phone Zone" pledge. Standard text message and data rates may apply.
