What is distracted driving?

Distracted driving is ANY activity that diverts a person’s attention away from the main task of driving.  Distractions endanger the safety of drivers, passengers, and bystanders.

Distractions include:

  • Texting
  • Using a phone of any kind
  • Eating and drinking
  • Talking to passengers
  • Grooming
  • Reading, including maps
  • Searching the internet
  • Adjusting the radio

Text messaging requires visual, manual and cognitive attention from the driver.  It is by far the most alarming distraction.

Together, we can help save lives.

It Can Wait!!
