Question:
There are many causes of distraction, all with the potential to increase risk.
• Physical Distraction—causes you to take your hands off the wheel or eyes off the road, such as reaching for an object.
• Mental Distraction—takes your mind away from the road, such as engaging in conversation with a passenger or thinking about something that happened during the day.
• Both Physical and Mental Distraction—creates an even greater chance an accident could happen, such as talking on a cell phone, or sending or reading text messages.
