Why there are dangers involved in hands-free phone use while driving.

People often think that a hands-free phone is safer than a handed phone. Yet, the hands-free phone is as dangerous as a handed phone when it is used while driving because it distracts our attention from the road, just like the other phones.  

EXPLANATION:  

The problem in using the phone while driving is not the type or the kind of the phone but the activity of using it for calling or texting during driving. Using phones, whatever the kind of type is, will likely distract our attention from the road. We will directly divide our attention to the roads and to the one we are talking to or texting on the phone.

It is not that handed phone block our hand to handle the steering wheel and hands-free phones allow us to control the steering wheel because it is hands-free. It is our attention that will be distracted while using the phone when driving. The action of using the phone when driving is known as distracted driving.

When we listen or speak to others on the phone, our brain’s ability to process the moving image is decreasing up to 1/3 percent. Even when our eyes are on the road, we will only see 50% of what is on the road. Some believe that talk to others on a hands-free phone is the same as having a conversation with passengers in the car, which is a distracted driving also.

Others even believe that talking to someone on the phone, using the hands-free phone or handed phone, is more dangerous than talking to passengers in the car because there is none to warn the drivers if they need to stop immediately to avoid a car crash.

Answer:

Because you're sharing your attention

Explanation:

Even though you're not touching your phone, the fact that you might look at it from time to time is extremely concerning, since you should have your eyes on the road all the time. Besides, the fact that you're sharing your attention between your phone and the road is already a problem.

What type of intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation did John have for coping with his disorder? for the movie a beautiful
NNADVOKAT [17]

<em>Intrinsic Motivation is a type of motivation wherein a person would behave in a way because he enjoys it not because he has something to gain financially or anything.  Extrinsic are focused on prized and rewards.</em>

<em>One of the examples of John's intrinsic motivation in the movie is he choose to see those characters that he encounters in his hallucinations but he did not interact with them anymore. He choose to see them because he enjoys their company around. but probably, he knows that they are just a part of his sickness but he did not talk to them because that is what he supposed to do. Those characters are not real and they are just a product of his mind. </em>

<em>As of extrinsic motivation, when he received a noble prize award and other recognition he knows that he should keep on doing and discover new things about math and formula which he was passionate about in spite of his sickness.  </em>
