Distracted Driving
08/25/2016

 

My husband is an EMT. Because the ambulance sits up higher than most other cars, he can see what most people are doing while they are driving. He and his partner have sort of made a game of it and have counted how many strange things people do behind the wheel.

He says he has since lost all faith in people paying attention while driving and now assumes that no one is! He said at least half the people he sees are usually playing with their phones. As a bicyclist riding to and from work, my biggest fear is getting hit by a distracted driver!

Thank you for bringing much needed attention to this topic!
