Question 5899

Which of these actions can distract the driver?

  1. Turning on the windshield wipers.
  2. Checking the GPS.
  3. Looking in the rearview mirror.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Checking the GPS.

Checking the GPS distracts you because you take your eyes off the road. If you operate it, you also take one hand off the wheel, like the driver in the picture. Checking the rearview mirror or turning on the windshield wipers are part of driving itself.
