Found My Soap Box. And I'm On It!
BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BL
Cognitive Attention vs Distracted Driving!
STOP DISTRACTED DRIVING
Cognitive Attention vs Distracted Driving!
Two weeks ago while I was being transported to the hospital in an
ambulance. The ambulance driver went on to the rumble strip because she
was reaching for her laptop!!!!
Yesterday my husband and I
were rear ended by a Garbage Truck at 30 mph while stopped at a red
light. The police officer said this was "inexcusable". The driver was
on his phone!!!!!! A trip to the ER, xrays and mri's, Totaled our car! !!!! When Does
This Craziness Stop!!!
STOP DISTRACTED DRIVERS!
That Call/Text Can Wait! It waited for thousands of years.
DISTRACTED DRIVING?
Distracted driving is any activity that could divert a person's
attention away from the primary task of driving. All distractions
endanger driver, passenger, and bystander safety. These types of
distractions include:
Texting
Using a cell phone or smartphone
Eating and drinking
Talking to passengers
Grooming
Reading, including maps
Using a navigation system
Watching a video
Adjusting a radio, CD player, or MP3 player
I spend half of my time driving watching for distracted drivers because there are so many distractions!!!
Text messaging, onboard computers, laptops/tablets etc., requires
visual, manual, and cognitive attention from the driver, it is by far
the most alarming distraction.
