Distracted drivers under the age of 20 involved in fatal crashes were reported to have been distracted while driving, according to NHTSA.
<h3>What is distracted driving?</h3>
Distracted driving is defined as any activity that diverts attention away from driving, such as talking or texting on your phone, eating and drinking, conversing with passengers, fiddling with the stereo, entertainment, or navigation system — anything that diverts your attention away from the task of safe driving.
Texting is the most hazardous distraction. For five seconds, reading or sending a text message diverts your focus from the road. That is the same as traveling a football field with your eyes closed at 55 mph.
You cannot drive safely unless you give your whole attention to the task of driving. Any non-driving activity is a possible distraction and raises your chances of accident.
