Over 3,000 road injuries and deaths occur each year because of distracted driving. It is easier than you think to lose focus when you are driving. Whether it’s a quick phone call, text, paying attention to the kids in the back seat, driving when you are tired, looking at the scenery, adjusting the radio or GPS, talking with a passenger, reading road signs, it just takes a split second to change your life forever.
Consider the following statistics from DMV.org
• 9 people die every day in the United States from driving distracted.
• 11% of car accidents leading to fatalities are related to distracted driving.
• When texting, your eyes are off the road for 5 seconds. That’s the length of a football field when driving at 55 MPH.
