Eyes on the road, Eagles.
From the CDC
“Texting, taking a call, putting on makeup behind the wheel can all lead to a crash in seconds. At 55 miles per hour, the average text takes your eyes off the road long enough to travel the length of a football field — blind. Every day 8 people are killed and 1,161 injured in crashes that involve distracted driving, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).”
