The number one cause of car accidents is not a criminal that drove drunk, sped or ran a red light. Distracted drivers are the top cause of car accidents in the U.S. today. A distracted driver is a motorist that diverts his or her attention from the road, usually to talk on a cell phone, send a text message or eat food.

I once saw a woman using the rear view mirror to put on her eye make-up while passing me on the highway. My favorite was the guy eating a bowl of cereal (with a spoon) while on his way.
