Ending Distracted Driving is Everyone's Responsibility Many distractions exist while driving, but cell phones are a top distraction because so many drivers use them for long periods of time each day. Almost everyone has seen a driver distracted by a cell phone, but when you are the one distracted, you often don't realize that driver is you. New technology in vehicles is causing us to become more distracted behind the wheel than ever before.

And, with some state laws focusing on handheld bans, many drivers honestly believe they are making the safe choice by using a hands- free device. But in fact, these technologies distract our brains even long after you've used them. Make no mistake: This multitasking technology is about convenience, not safety.
