Distracted drivers were responsible for 424,000 injuries and 3,100 fatalities on American roads in a recent year. Engaging in small talk with a passenger, using a cell phone, or fiddling with the radio dial are all common examples of distracted driving, and all divert your focus from the road, even if only slightly.
