Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
The manual says that reading or sending one text message pulls your eyes from the road for about 5 seconds. If you do this at 55 mph, about how far does your car travel without you watching the road?
Correct answer: About the length of a football field
Why
Texting takes your eyes, your hands and your mind off driving at the same time, which is why the manual calls it the most alarming distraction. Your brain does not truly multitask; it switches between tasks and misses what happens in between. Pull off the road and stop before you use a phone, and check local rules, because many Montana cities ban phone use while driving.
