Many accidents on the road are avoidable simply by driving defensively and paying attention. Driver distraction is one of the leading causes and can occur in many ways. Distraction can be categorized in three ways; visual, cognitive and manual. Visual distractions would involve anything that the driver would look at rather than the road such as; a map, a phone or another accident. Cognitive distractions include anything that requires the driver's thought. Things such as a conversation with someone else in the car or a phone call. Lastly, manual distractions include things that take the driver's hands off of the wheel. This could be changing the radio or reaching for something in the car. It only takes a few seconds of distraction to cause an accident. Drunk driving is another leading cause and this can also affect the driver's attention ability. Reaction times and focus abilities suffer when under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
