More than 200 students gathered last night at the Thomas R.

PDAA and representatives from the Westmoreland County and Allegheny County District Attorney’s Offices were on hand to discuss the rewarding work of serving our communities as prosecutors.

🚗 National Teen Driver Safety Week 🚗

This week, we encourage parents, guardians, and teens to have important conversations about safe driving.

Motor vehicle crashes remain one of the leading causes of death for teenagers. Simple choices can make a life-saving difference:

✅ Put the phone away and avoid distractions
✅ Always wear a seat belt
✅ Follow speed limits and traffic laws
✅ Never drive impaired or ride with an impaired driver
✅ Stay focused and limit passengers when gaining driving experience

The Pennsylvania District Attorneys Association supports efforts to promote roadway safety. By building good habits early, teens can help protect themselves, their passengers, and everyone on our roadways.
