| Does your church host a camp, vacation Bible schools, and outdoor events? These events typically require the church to provide transportation, meaning volunteers and staff get behind the wheel. In 2019, more than 3,000 people were killed in vehicle accidents involving distracted driving, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Focusing specifically on cellphone use, attorney Richard Hammar notes in a Legal Development that distracted driving is an issue churches as employers must become vigilant about addressing. A church can face significant legal liability when an employee or volunteer injures another while carrying on his or her work.
