Distracted Driving Is Impaired Driving

3,275 – That’s the number of people killed by distracted driving in 2023.*

Distracted driving isn’t just dangerous. It’s deadly.

Cell phone use is one of the leading causes of distracted driving, but taking your eyes off the road for any reason or length of time causes you to lose awareness of the vehicle ahead of you, any light changes, any changes in traffic patterns, and any unexpected obstacles.

Auto accidents caused by distracted driving are preventable.

This fall, prioritize safety and make a personal commitment to end distracted driving: Utilize hand free music and text features. Put your phone on silent/do not disturb. Familiarize yourself with map directions so you won’t rely on a visual aid. Properly restrain or contain younger children and pets. Avoid eating or drinking behind the wheel. Be smart and stay alert.
