Question 6594

Does looking at a map while driving distract the driver?

  1. Yes, because it takes your eyes off the road.
  2. Only if you are driving above the speed limit.
  3. No, because it makes driving easier.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because it takes your eyes off the road.

Yes. Reading a map takes your eyes off the road, and while you look at it, the car keeps moving without you seeing what is happening, whatever your speed. The driver in the picture is also holding it open with one hand. Check the route before leaving or stop somewhere safe.
