Drunk Drivers Not the Only Danger on the Road

Motorists
What is your biggest concern when you enter your car? For most, safety during transport is of the utmost importance, but a growing population across the nation have shifted their priorities from proper vehicle safety to mobile entertainment transport. With the invention of devices such as the iPod, PSP, Droid, and the iPhone, drivers have become extremely distracted with behaviors usually reserved for home entertainment. There was a time when the most you had to worry about while driving was drunk drivers, but now texting, eating, make-up application, talking, and grooming have taken over as some of the most distracting habits for drivers. Is plain driving just to boring? Are there not enough seconds in the day that we need to complete home activities in our cars? What we need is a motorist make-over. Drivers of all generations but especially the latest that have grown up in a world of individual entertainment technology must understand the importance of focusing solely one activity at a time while driving, and that activity is driving – not with one eye on the road and the other on the iPhone watching the score, or one knee on the wheel, one hand with a coffee cup, and the other hand checking a text message. Think about it. Isn’t your life worth driving for?
