Hello Friends,

Our son Magnus was stolen from us by a reckless driver while doing what he loved—riding his bike. He was just 17, a rising star in cyclocross, mountain biking, and road racing. He was the light in our lives. Today, we write not just as grieving parents, but as voices demanding change.

Every morning, we wake to a world without Magnus' laughter, his determination, his dreams. This reality has stripped away any illusion that our current systems are working. The pain we carry has transformed into urgency—to ensure no other family endures this preventable heartbreak.

We are tired. Tired of hearing "accidents happen." Tired of watching other parents lose their children to careless and reckless driving. Tired of a society that accepts these losses as inevitable. They are not inevitable. They are the result of choices—choices we can and must change.

Our grief has taught us that time is precious, and waiting for others to act is no longer an option. We are channeling our love—a love born from loss—into action. Magnus' death will not be just another statistic. It will be the catalyst for real change in how we protect vulnerable road users.

We invite you to join us. Not with sympathy, but with action. We need your voices, your energy, your refusal to accept that this is the status quo. Together, we can honor Magnus's memory by creating safer roads for all cyclists and pedestrians.

Let our collective voice be heard. Let our demand for change be impossible to ignore. Because this isn't just about Magnus anymore—it's about every person, every child, who deserves to pursue their passion without fear, every family who deserves to see their loved ones return home safely.

With determination and hope,
Jill and Michael White

Our 10 Year Vision

By 2035, we envision a fundamental transformation of our driving culture where careless and reckless behavior becomes unacceptable. This transformation begins today, powered by immediate action to change driver behavior rather than waiting for infrastructure improvements. Within 10 years, we hope to make roads so safe for everyone that The White Line can close its doors, knowing we've honored Magnus White's legacy.

Our Strategic Vision:
10 Years to Transform Road Safety

Fed up with empty promises and endless waiting for change? So are we. Our strategic vision details how we'll make careless and reckless driving unacceptable in just 10 years. No bureaucracy. No decades-long infrastructure projects. Just immediate, decisive action that saves lives today.

Pillar 1
Shock People Awake

We hit hard with real stories that show people the brutal reality of careless and reckless driving. No softening the blow. Feel the pain and face the truth. Careless and reckless driving kills.

Pillar 2
Proof that Demands Action

Every death on our roads is undeniable evidence of a failure—and proof that these tragedies are preventable. By gathering, analyzing, and presenting hard facts, we’re exposing the truth: these killings can stop, and we’re putting the data front and center.

Pillar 3
Start an Uprising

This isn’t just a cause, it’s a fight for justice. Our grassroots network unites devastated families, fed-up citizens, and community members from all walks of life. We provide the tools and platform for people to demand safer streets, transforming individual anger and grief into a collective force for change.
