Woman wins car for pledging to focus on the road

Posted: 12.19.2011 at 6:30 PM

Jody Mealy, of Portland, had the winning key that turned on the 2012 Ford Focus. She won it for pledging to end distracted driving in Missouri by focusing on the road and putting down her cell phone.

A KRCG viewer is the proud owner of a new car after she pledged to Focus on the Road.

Jody Mealy, of Portland, had the key that turned the ignition on Monday evening.

Mealy said she signed the pledge because she already does not text and drive.

Did you sign the pledge to Focus on the Road? Why is it important to end distracted driving in Missouri?
