What do you consider deadly? What do you think is the number one killer of teens? When you hear that word deadly, what kind of things come to mind or what kind of activities do you consider deadly? Can you give me some examples? Distracted or wreckless driving is more deadly to teens than disease, murder, animal attacks, poisoning and suicide combined. With roughly 300 million wireless subscriptions in America today-and a growing number of devices and services designed to keep people constantly connected-technology is playing an increasing role in enhancing our quality of life. Yet using these technologies while you’re behind the wheel can have devastating consequences

What is Distracted Driving? Any activity that could divert your attention away from the primary task of driving, including: Changing radio stations or songs on an Ipod Using GPS Talking to passengers Eating and drinking Brushing your hair or applying makeup Taking pictures Texting Talking on your phone Ask students what they consider distracted driving?

Name some scenarios that have distracted you while you are driving

Craziest Distractions What is the craziest distraction you have ever witnesses? https://youtu.be/RoMDLR93QdE

The Distracted Brain Texting and talking on your cell phone are the most dangerous distractions while driving! Involves 3 types of driver distraction 1) Visual-Eyes Off Road 2) Mechanical-Hand Off Wheel 3) Cognitive-Mind off Driving When thinking about driver distractions, texting and talking on your cell phone are the most dangerous distractions while driving! With that being said, the reason it is so dangerous is because of 3 types of driver distractions You can be visually distracted which means, your eyes are not physically focused on the road You can be mechanically distracted which means, your hands are physically off the steering wheel. Believe it or not, when looking at the data we have available, eating, drinking, and tuning the radio (all mechanical distractions) most of those do not significantly affect driving You can also be both visually and mechanically distracted-Examples of this would include handling or retrieving an object such as a CD, phone, or personal grooming)

The Distracted Brain Our brain is NOT capable of multitasking http://natgeotv.com.au/videos/test-your- brain/pay-attention-60EC824F.aspx The reason why cell phones are higher risk is due to brain overload and selective attention. Literally this means that your mind is off the task of driving. When people perform two cognitive tasks simultaneously (like driving and talking on the phone) a resource constraint exists in the brain, reducing the available resources for each individual task.

The Distracted Brain: Inattentional Blindness National Safety Council The Distracted Brain: Inattentional Blindness Vision is the most important sense we use for safe driving. It’s the source of the majority of information when driving. But drivers talking on handheld and hands-free cell phones tend to “look at” but not “see” objects. University of Utah research estimates that drivers talking on cell phones can fail to see up to 50 percent of the information around their vehicles. Talking on a cell phone draws resources from the same area of our brains that also processes moving visual information (the parietal lobe). When we talk on a cell phone while driving, this multi-tasking brings cognitive distraction – too much information for our brains to handle well at once. Our brains compensate for receiving too much information by filtering some visual information out. When this happens, drivers are not aware that visual information ever existed! Drivers don’t see it and certainly cannot act on it. That filtered info could be a red light, a stop sign, a pedestrian, a bicyclist. Drivers have no control over what information they will not see. The dangerous thing is, we are not even aware that this is happening. Drivers can “look but not see" half of the visual information in the driving environment. Cell Phone Use While Driving

We may feel like we are able to confidently and safely text while driving but the distraction video proved to us that although we feel like we are driving properly we are not capable of focusing on that many activities at once.
