Note: A distracted driver is a dangerous driver. Remember texting, talking on a cell phone, looking for papers or items dropped while driving and many more are proven by researchers as taking your attention away from the road ahead and motorists around you. Become a “determined” driver instead by choosing to be in control of your attention and actions when you’re in the driver’s seat.
