What is Texbies?
One text behind the wheel. Undead.
A Texbie is what you turn into when you text and drive: eyes on your phone instead of the road, one notification away from a crash.
We use zombie art, memes and squads to bring awareness to texting and driving, and to make eyes-on-the-road the flex, not the lecture. Made in Oak Park, IL, for drivers heading to class, work or a night out.
How squads work
Survive together.
Take the pledge
While you drive: no texting, no scrolling, no "just checking." Park first, then text.
Build your squad
Start with 5 friends and keep recruiting. Share your squad code in the group chat.
Survive Week 1
Seven days phone-free behind the wheel. If anyone slips, the squad's streak resets.
