Ferraris and Distracted Driving

I came across a humorous video that shows (in a funny way) the effects of distracted driving. Take a look at the video:

Now first of all let’s admit we would all like to have a Ferrari and as a married man I cannot comment to the frequency in which men are distracted looking at women. However, I can comment that distracted driving has become epidemic in Oklahoma and all across the nation.

I found an interesting flyer from Hopkins Medicine that gives some startling statistics on distracted driving. In fact, according to the flyer, the National Highway Safety Administration believes distracted driving is estimated to be a factor in between 25 to 50 percent of all traffic crashes-that’s between 4,000 and 8,000 crashes a day.
