Motor vehicle crashes remain one of the leading causes of injury and death in Colorado, with more than 300 lives lost and nearly 2,500 hospitalizations each year.
Not all distractions are the same, but they’re all dangerous:
• Visual Distraction: Eyes off the road
• Manual Distraction: Hands off the wheel
• Cognitive Distraction: Mind off driving
This Distracted Driving Awareness Month, understanding these risks is the first step toward safer driving. Through the Choose S.A.F.E. program, CommonSpirit Health provides education and resources for teens, families, and schools across Colorado to help reduce crashes and save lives.
