Driving is not a task to take lightly. When operating a car, pay attention to what lies ahead and put all distractions away. Distracted and impaired driving, as well as speeding, only opens more opportunities for danger to find you. Be a responsible and defensive driver by sharing the road with others and focusing on the task at hand.
