According to recent findings from the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ftp.txdot.gov\/pub\/txdot-info\/trf\/crash_statistics\/2020\/21.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Texas Department of Transportation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, \u201cdriver inattention\u201d contributed to 70,480 crashes statewide in a single year. This includes 1,503 crashes with suspected serious injuries and 250 fatal crashes.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To help combat the problem of distracted driving, road safety advocates have designated April as <strong>Distracted Driving Awareness Month<\/strong>. Keep reading to learn more about distracted driving and what you can do to keep yourself and others safe on the road.<\/span><\/p><h2><b>The Definition of Distracted Driving<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Distracted driving is when drivers aren\u2019t fully engaged with what they\u2019re doing behind the wheel. This is extremely dangerous because driving requires quick reflexes, snap judgments, and situational awareness. If a driver is distracted, they\u2019re much more likely to be involved in an accident.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are three main kinds of driving distractions:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Manual distractions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> cause a driver to take their hands off the steering wheel<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Visual distractions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> cause a driver to take their eyes off the road<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Cognitive distractions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> take a driver\u2019s focus off the act of driving<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many common driving distractions fit two or all three of these categories. Texting while driving, for example, requires a driver to take one hand off the wheel, take their eyes off the road, and focus on other things. It\u2019s no wonder that distracted driving is such a common factor in car accidents.<\/span><\/p><h2><b>What Is Distracted Driving Awareness Month?<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsc.org\/road-safety\/get-involved\/distracted-driving-awareness-month\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">National Safety Council<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (NSC) and other road safety organizations have designated April of every year as Distracted Driving Awareness Month. During April, the NSC and other groups aim to educate drivers about the dangers of distracted driving while encouraging them to be more aware of potential distractions. The goal is to make the public more aware of distracted driving and get drivers to change their habits.<\/span><\/p><h2><b>How to Get Involved<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are many ways you can get involved in Distracted Driving Awareness Month. At the individual level, you can take the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsc.org\/faforms\/ddam-pledge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cJust Drive Pledge\u201d<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and commit yourself to driving without distractions. The NSC also encourages people to ask their city, county, or local government to make a proclamation during April asking drivers to avoid distractions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, the NSC has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsc.org\/faforms\/ddam-signup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">promotional tools<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> available to help you spread the word about the dangers of driving while distracted. Finally, you can also donate to the NSC or other groups to support their mission.<\/span><\/p><h2><b>Try the Multitasking Quiz<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One way to learn more about distracted driving is to take the NSC\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsc.org\/getmedia\/e5867328-11cf-4d99-8ba6-09e116b979e5\/quiz.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">multitasking quiz<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. This short test asks drivers about common distracted driving myths, then answers them with sobering statistics about just how dangerous distracted driving can be.<\/span><\/p><h2><b>How to Talk to Teens About Distracted Driving<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Teenagers are among the drivers who are most likely to drive while distracted. It\u2019s important that parents talk to them about how dangerous distractions can be. Here are a few tips about <a href=\"https:\/\/hildasibrian.com\/en\/car-crashes-kill-texas-teens\/\">talking to teenagers about distracted driving<\/a>:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Set aside some time to talk to your child when they aren\u2019t busy with dinner, homework, or other activities.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Have a plan before you begin the discussion.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Approach the topic from a place of concern and love. You don\u2019t want to sound like you are lecturing your child.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Stay calm during the discussion, as getting angry or upset will only backfire.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Use real-world examples when appropriate. It\u2019s also a good idea to talk about specific habits or behaviors you\u2019ve seen your child or their friends doing.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Be patient. If you don\u2019t get through during the initial discussion, end it and try again at a later time when your child might be more receptive.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Let your child know if their friends text while driving or otherwise engage in distracted driving behaviors.
