FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Lake Worth, FLSafety 4 Life, in partnership with LaBovick Law Group, Palm Beach State College, and Wycliffe Charities Foundation, will host the Together 4 Safety Community Crash Reenactment on Saturday, January 31, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Palm Beach State College’s Lake Worth campus.

This free community event invites teens, parents, and families to experience a live crash reenactment designed to show the real-life impact of distracted and impaired driving — not through lectures or warnings, but through a shared, real-world experience.

“Our goal is simple: to save lives,” said Esther LaBovick, CEO of Safety 4 Life. “When teens see the reality of a crash for themselves — and experience it together with their families — it changes how they think behind the wheel. If this reenactment helps even one young person make a safer choice, it’s worth it.”

The reenactment will feature a realistic simulation of a serious motor vehicle crash. Local EMS, Fire Rescue, and Law Enforcement professionals, along with trained student actors, will demonstrate an authentic emergency response, including injury assessment, vehicle extrication, and on-scene procedures. Attendees will witness firsthand how quickly everyday decisions can lead to life-changing consequences.

The event is made possible through collaboration with a broad network of community and safety partners, including the Health Care District of Palm Beach County, Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, The School District of Palm Beach County, Tenet Health, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue, the State Attorney’s Office, 15th Judicial Circuit, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), Kauff’s Towing, and Dignity Memorial — all united by a shared commitment to protecting young people and preventing serious injuries.

The Together 4 Safety Community Crash Reenactment is recommended for middle school students and older, though all ages are welcome. Parents and guardians of younger children may preview a video from a previous reenactment to determine appropriateness.

A former participant shared the lasting impact of the experience:
“I saw this when I was 17, and it changed how I drive forever.”

Following the live reenactment, families are invited to visit the Safety Fair, hosted on the Palm Beach State College campus, where community partners and safety professionals will share resources, prevention strategies, and insights designed to support safer choices on and off the road.

James was searching for equipment for painting at Home Depot. In the aisle next to him, there was a worker on a lift stocking the highest shelf. The worker pushed boxes so far across the shelf that they fell off the other edge and hit James in the head. The force almost knocked James unconscious. He sat down and the loud bang got the worker off the ladder to see what fell. When they saw James they offered him a bucket and made a report. James did not recall leaving the store or how he got home. He did not recall much except being at home depot and getting hit in the head. Home Depot told him that it was a small box of dust masks that hurt him. We discovered it was actually a large box of emergency kits that fell off the shelf.
