Distracted driving reduces drivers’ awareness of changes in the road environment and decisions on how to respond to changes. It also decreases the driver’s ability to control the vehicle. As a result, some of the errors drivers can make are: following too closely, failing to maintain lane position, failing to yield the right of way, failing to see other road users approaching your vehicle, especially from sides or behind, irregular speed, responding too slowly to changes in traffic, longer reaction to traffic signals, making unsafe turns or running red lights. To avoid hitting another vehicle the driver has to slam on a brake, and adjust steering to stay in the lane. |
