Drunk Driving Vs. Distracted Driving: Both Are Major Sources Of Accidents
Drunk driving occurs when a person operates a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, impairing their ability to control the vehicle safely.
On the other hand, distracted driving happens when a driver’s attention is diverted away from driving by external factors, such as using a mobile phone, eating or drinking, adjusting the radio or navigation system or talking to passengers. The consequences of distracted driving may include increased insurance premiums.
