Distracted Driving: America's Epidemic

Distracted driving is a deadly epidemic across America. The National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA) reports that in 2012 alone, 3,328 people were killed in distracted driving crashes.

What is distracted driving? Distracted driving occurs whenever you take your eyes off the road, your hands off the wheel, or your mind of the primary task of driving safely. By engaging in any non-driving activity, you are increasing your risk of crashing.

Examples of distracted driving, include:

  • Sending and reading texts
  • Talking on a cell phone (even hands-free)
  • Eating
  • Applying makeup
  • Reading (including directions)
  • Adjusting a CD player or the radio

While drivers have been engaging in distracted driving behaviors since cars were invented, today's information age and widespread cell phone use has catapulted distracted driving behaviors to a whole new level. For example, at any given moment, over 660,000 vehicles are being driving by someone using their hand-held cell phone. (NHTSA)

In Alabama, there is a ban on cell phone use for novice drivers and a ban on texting for all drivers. Despite these bans, negligent drivers continue to text while driving, thereby placing pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists, and other drivers at an unnecessary risk.
