ACCIDENT CAUSED BY REACHING FOR DROPPED E-CIGARETTE!
*OH YES - THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO BE DISTRACTED WHEN DRIVING! *One can be distracted reaching for a cigarette lighter; OR flicking ashes into the ashtray; OR adjusting the heat or A/C controls; OR reaching to change radio stations; OR inserting a CD in the player, reaching for a kleenex; OR some item in the back seat; OR saying something to someone in the passenger seat; OR in the backseat. *I do NOT even have a cell phone! *My radio does NOT work. *NOR does my A/C work. *I have still found myself distracted and turning on the wrong street SIMPLY BECAUSE I WAS DEEP IN THOUGHT ABOUT SOMETHING OR OTHER as I was driving. *SO - do NOT even think that just because one has a "headset" to use one's cell phone instead of "texting" - THAT ONE REMAINS IN CONTROL AND IS PAYING ATTENTION TO TRAFFIC! *JUST DOES NOT NECESSARILY WORK THAT WAY FOLKS!
