1 Answers
At a speed of 60 km/h, a car travels blindly for 16.6 meters when distracted for one second. Driving precautions: When a person is not in good mental condition, they should not drive on the road. While driving, ensure full concentration—do not make or answer phone calls, and avoid casual conversations with passengers to prevent distraction. Hazards of distracted driving: It affects the driver's normal control and judgment. In case of sudden incidents, the driver may fail to make timely judgments, leading to delayed actions and a high risk of traffic accidents. Distraction narrows the driver's field of vision; using a phone while driving reduces peripheral awareness, increasing the likelihood of accidents. It also disperses focus, hindering the observation of road conditions and surroundings. In emergencies, it significantly weakens the driver's adaptability and reaction time. Additionally, it may cause reduced speed, affecting the passage rate of other vehicles and leading to traffic congestion.
