5 Seconds

What can possibly go wrong in 5 seconds? Would you drive with your eyes closed for 5 seconds? At 70 mph, those few seconds would take you over the length of a football field. To do so would be really stupid. You could get killed or kill someone. So, it is reasonable that one would not drive with their eyes closed for 5 seconds.

There are many things that could happen, like someone getting in front of you, not seeing a pedestrian or a person on a bicycle, or even just veering off the road into a tree. Yet, there are people on the road everyday that drive for 5 seconds with their eyes closed. And, they do it several times per day, just to be cool.

It’s called texting.
