Eyes on the Road

You might think that texting or talking on a cellphone are major distractions for drivers but Leasetrader.com, based here in South Florida, found out that's not the case.
In a recent survey of 3,000 drivers, Lease Trader found that kids in the car ranked as the most dangerous distraction among women and road rage ranked as the most dangerous distraction among men.
Here's some scary findings. Women ranked putting on make up while driving as the second most dangerous distraction, followed by messing with the radio. Men ranked eating and drinking (non-alcoholic beverages, you got to hope) as the second most dangerous distraction followed by checking out other drivers. Yeah, like who hasn't done that?
Texting was in the middle of the list for both men and women but as time goes on, unless there is some regulation, that's likely to increase. Especially if those of us of the boomer generation get hooked.
