Rachel Grafe, A Victim of Texting While Driving

Rachel Grafe, 19, died while sending a text message. She was driving down a highway when she lost control and crashed into a steel support. She was going so fast when she struck the support that the impact of the crash bent it. All of her family and friends were devastated. After the crash her family joined forces and began speaking about the dangers of texting while driving to schools in New Orleans. Save a life, don't text and drive.
