Take the Distracted Driving Quiz

We all know that distracted driving is bad. But, what is distracted driving exactly? This hilarious quiz from the fine folks at Car Talk demonstrates just how multifaceted the term “distracted driving” can be. Here are some of our favorites:

While driving do you…

– Brush your teeth, gargle and spit

– Eat anything that takes two hands, like a Big Mac or Moo Shu Pork

– Try to build a scale model of a nuclear reactor

– Discipline your dog, cat or pet ferret

– Focus on removal of obstinate nose or eyebrow hair

– Yell at either Rush Limbaugh, Air America or Click and Clack

– Perform complex removal of spinach or other food products from between teeth, including use of mirrors

You would be surprised at how many people answer “sometimes” and “always” to these types of questions!

Humor is an effective tool for getting to the heart of an issue, especially distracted driving. How many drivers have you seen distracted by funny habits such as nose-picking, headbanging or chest shaving? It’s not always cell phones that cause crashes, but other terribly embarrassing things as well.

So spread the knowledge and awareness of distracted driving by sharing the humor. If you do, then we’ll buy you a pony!
