According to the CDC, approximately 9 people are killed and over 1,00 people are injured in crashes involving distracted driving every single day in the U.S. As these number rise each year, many states have enacted laws, such as banning texting while driving to help raise awareness of the dangers that distracted driving has.

Distracted driving is driving while doing another activity that takes your attention away. The three main types of distraction are visual, manual and cognitive, and can include a wide variety of activities. Distracted driving endangers you as the driver, and all other drivers on the road.
