text: More and more people are getting on the roads making it more imperative that we practice safe driving habits. 481,000 people are using cell phones while driving. Cell phones contribute to distracted driving. It can be considered one or all three types of distraction: Visual- which is removing eyes from the road, Manual- removing hands from the wheel, and Cognitive-removing your attention or focus from driving. Any of these can lead to catastrophic consequences to you or any passengers in the vehicle. This is why those with stands or hands-free are not a solution but a lie to see as if it's better. Most people don't drive with both hands once they are comfortable driving. Teens who have little experience and high cell phone use create double the danger.
