The Nevada Highway Patrol (NHP) is joining other law enforcement agencies across the state in a Joining Forces Distracted Driver campaign April 1-15, 2018. NHP will be working diligently to urge motorists to keep their eyes on the road and put away cell phones or other items that cause distractions. On average, texting takes your eyes off the road for 4.6 seconds. When traveling at 55 mph, that is enough time to cover the length of a football field.
