Distracted Driving Dangers
Using a phone while driving significantly increases the risk of accidents. Common behaviors include sneaking a glance at the screen, scrolling through apps, or trying to send messages, which distracts the driver from the road. These distractions can lead to serious consequences such as crashes, tickets, or even fatalities. It is crucial for drivers to eliminate distractions and focus solely on driving to ensure their safety and that of others.
