The terrible accident along I-64 that left two people dead has now become an opportunity for the Highway Patrol to remind drivers about being distracted while on the road.
Police have blamed a truck driver for being inattentive as the cause of the multi vehicle crash.
You certainly don't have to be on the road long to see some of the things drivers do while driving such as using a cell phone, texting, reading, eating, using a gps, and even watching tv (which I personally witnessed).
I'll be the first to admit that I can be distracted as much as anyone else. But seeing how bad an accident can be just by not paying attention even for a second or two has made me think twice about what I do when behind the wheel. And it's something police want us all to think about.
