October is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month.
AAA’s ongoing initiative to end distractive driving is called “Don’t Drive Intoxicated. Don’t Drive Intexticated”. Entirely preventable injuries and deaths result from impairment as well as distractions.
In order to focus on driving, AAA recommends that drivers put aside electronic distractions like phones for the duration of their journey, set vehicle systems before putting a vehicle in gear, secure all items, and stay focused on the task of driving.
