As you roll on down the road in your vehicle, you're using all of your senses to react to the environment around you. Because you're alert to the roadway, you can react to most anything that occurs around you that creates a hazard or incident you wish to avoid. Statistics have proven that, while driving, our society over the years has become distracted by things outside of what is on the road, hence the term "distracted driving." Without this attention while driving, you lose vital reaction time to roadway hazards and the ability to protect yourself from them. It has also been proven that you, as a distracted driver, become a hazard to pedestrians and other drivers. Paying attention is not the only issue that makes you a hazard. Sometimes people may not have quick enough reaction time or reflexes to prevent the incident. This again can lead to an inability to protect yourself and others from your driving. In either case, this could make you dangerous on the road. |
