TOP TEN CAUSES OF ACCIDENTS:
1. Mobile Phones – This is the number 1 cause for road traffic accidents. The danger of using a cell phone on the move for texting or speaking cannot be overstated. Use hands free devices such as Bluetooth if you must answer a call while driving.
2. CDs & Radios – You may see this as multitasking but humans can't do two things at once properly.
3. In car snacks – Far too many accidents have been caused by people trying to avoid getting food crumbs or sauce on their clothes. This includes smoking and ash or hot embers. Holding drinks between your legs or popping a drink lid is another common cause of accidents.
4. Rubber necking – This is slowing to look at other accidents and believe it or not rubbernecking is among the top causes of traffic accidents. Taking your eyes off the road to gloat at an accident could lead to you becoming a statistic. It's human nature to want to see a crash or maybe to see if someone needs a hand - but leave it to the experts.
5. Alcohol – Traditionally the cause of the highest death rates in the US and UK. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) estimates that 17,941 people died in 2006 from being drunk at the wheel. That was roughly 40 percent of total traffic deaths in the US in 2006. Don't drink and drive - get a taxi.
6. Drugs – Illegal drugs like cocaine, crack, LSD, Meth amphetamines, and marijuana. Over the counter medications can also cause drowsiness.
7. Distractions – Taking your eyes off the road to temporarily tend to something going on inside your car.
8. Speeding – Reckless driving is bound to lead to accidents. People in a hurry drive aggressively, changing lanes without signaling and take unnecessary risks.
9. Poor weather- Fog, rain and snow reduces visibility. Wet, snow covered and icy roads diminishes the grip of your tyres.
10.
Bad roads —
Pot holes and uneven tarmac may lead to serious car accidents by throwing
you off course and out of control of your vehicle.
Finding the right mobile phone and airtime package from numerous high street and online dealers can prove to be an overwhelming challenge.
