WHEREAS, Marci Corry has dedicated herself to promoting safe
driving through her efforts as founder and CEO of SAFE 2 SAVE, a
mobile app that is rapidly gaining popularity in communities across

driving competitions with one another; and
WHEREAS, In just two years, the app's user base has grown to
more than 89,000 people, and plans are underway to expand across the
entire state and go nationwide in 2019; along with the app,
Ms. Corry oversees SAFE 2 SAVE's outreach initiatives that involve
speaking about safe driving at schools, businesses, and
organizations; and
WHEREAS, By addressing the serious problem of distracted
driving, Marci Corry has demonstrated an inspiring commitment to
making our roadways safer; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
Legislature hereby honor Marci Corry for her important work as
founder and CEO of SAFE 2 SAVE and extend to her sincere best wishes
for continued success with this endeavor; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Ms. Corry as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
