Help Educate this April for Distracted Driving Awareness Month with Discounted Courses

Did you know five seconds is the average time your eyes are off the road while texting? If you are traveling at 55mph that’s enough time to cover the length of a football field, and you are doing it blindfolded!
As dangerous as texting and driving is, it is not the only action posing a threat while driving.  Distracted driving includes any activity that diverts a person’s attention away from the primary task of driving.  All these distractions endanger the lives of drivers, passengers, and bystanders. Distractions include; texting, using a cell phone, eating and drinking, talking to passengers, grooming, reading (including maps), using a navigation system, watching a video, and adjusting a radio, CD player, or MP3 player.  Text messaging requires visual, manual, and cognitive attention from the driver, so it may be by far the most alarming distraction.

Distracted driving has become a major threat on today’s roadways, and continues to be a leading cause of traffic accidents in America.  April has been marked as Distracted Driving Awareness Month by the National Safety Council (NSC).  This month is devoted to help educate the public about the dangers associated with distracted driving and eliminate the risk of fatal crashes associated with these distractions.
