warm - up prompt:
what is one form of distracted driving? explain how you can avoid participating in that specific form of distracted driving. explain a time you have been exposed to or participated in distracted driving.

Explanation:

One form of distracted driving is using a mobile phone while driving, such as texting or making calls. To avoid this, I can put my phone on "Do Not Disturb" mode or use a phone mount to keep it out of reach so I'm not tempted to use it. Once, I was in a car where the driver was texting while driving, and we almost hit a pedestrian who was crossing the street. This experience made me realize how dangerous distracted driving is, and since then, I always remind drivers to focus on the road and avoid using their phones to prevent injuries and accidents.
