Distracted Driving Isn't What You Think It Is
Distracted driving isn't just texting, eating, or screwing around with your touchscreen. After The Car Chick got a ticket for running a red light she didn't even realize she'd run, she learned firsthand how emotions and cognitive distraction can affect even a highly trained, attentive driver.
In this episode, LeeAnn looks at what distracted driving really means, why your eyes can be on the road while your brain is somewhere else, and some simple exercises to improve your situational awareness behind the wheel.
Bottom line: Don't just look at the road. Read the road.
