IndyCar driver visits Indiana schools to promote safe driving INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — NTT IndyCar Series driver Sting Ray Robb has been staying busy over the past six months. The Juncos Hollinger Racing driver has competed in two races already this season and most recently wrapped up a test o n the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course. He also though stayed busy this past offseason. “I’ve always said that if racing’s all I ever do, if I just won races the rest of my life, I still would not be doing enough,” Robb said. “Because the platform that I’ve been given is a gift. And so I got to steward that well.” In December, Robb visited high schools across Indiana to speak to kids about making responsible choices on the road. Robb shared some photos of the events on his social media platforms. The discussions with the students were part of an initiative by Choices Matter, “a life-changing program for students using personal stories and interactive materials to inspire students to make the right choices both behind the wheel and in life.” “Going to different schools,” Robb said. “Telling kids, ‘Hey. We want you to be smart. I know it sounds weird coming from a guy that drives 240 miles an hour for a living, but I know what it takes to be safe on the road.” Some of the messages Robb said he hoped he portrayed to the kids include: Don’t drink and drive Don’t do drugs and drive Put the phone down when driving Wear your seatbelt in the car “All those things lead to safe driving habits,” Robb said. “But it might change your life. Choices matter not just on the road, but it’s off the road as well.” Robb is one of seven speakers listed on the Choices Matter website. Other speakers include Cara Filler, Chris Sandy, David Francisco, Karen Torres, Fletcher Cleaves and Steve Emt. Robb and the rest of the IndyCar grid will be back in action on April 13 when the series races on the Streets of Long Beach. ...read more read less
