Resources for smart drivers

Distracted Driving

Distracted driving is a serious issue, with over a thousand people injured daily in accidents caused by distractions. After a close call with a texting driver, I found these resources:
​
  • Addiction to Technology - We often feel the need to use our phones while driving due to technology addiction, even when we know it’s dangerous.
  • Distracted Driving: Preventable and Deadly - ​​​This resource highlights the alarming frequency of distracted driving and offers tips to prevent it.​
  • Hands-free Devices are Distracting - Hands-free devices still cause distractions, leaving drivers unsafe for 27 seconds after use.
  • Road Rules for Kids - Children can distract drivers if not properly managed. Follow these tips to ensure their safety.
  • Pet Safety in Cars - Traveling with pets can distract drivers and jeopardize both their safety and yours.
  • Distracted Driving Awareness Month - April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, focusing on raising awareness of this deadly issue.​​
