"Motor Vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for persons between the ages of 15 to 20 years of age". National Center for Health Statistics
The STOPPED Program is a parental notification system that was developed for the state by the Michigan Sheriffs' Association(MSA), the goal of STOPPED is to reduce the number of young drivers who are injured or killed in motor vehicle crashes each year.
Annually over 3,000 drivers, ages 16 to 21 years old, die in the United States as a result of motor vehicle crashes.
We are pleased to work with MSA to offer parents this voluntary notification system that extends their watchful eyes and raises the level of awareness for drivers under the age of 21.
On Your Mark
Parents voluntarily register with the Michigan Sheriffs' Association any motor vehicle that will be operated by a driver under the age of 21.
Get Set..
An identification decal is issued by the Michigan Sheriffs' Association and should be affixed to the front windshield of each registered vehicle.
STOPPED!
If for any reason, the registered vehicle is stopped by Sheriff's deputies while a person under the age of 21 is driving, the officer will complete a notification card that provides the following information:
Time and location of stop
Driver's name and number of passengers in vehicle
Reason for the stop
Whether any citations were issued
