**Accidents due to distractions** are increasingly frequent due to various reasons that affect drivers.

- **Common distractions** include using a mobile phone, looking at shop windows, or anything that diverts attention from driving. These distractions can occur both inside and outside the vehicle.

- The **risk groups** most prone to accidents due to distraction are young drivers between 18 and 25 years old and those over 70 years old. Additionally, these accidents are more common when there are several people in the vehicle, during the summer months, on weekend trips, and on roads, especially on highways and expressways.

- The **causes of distraction** can be external, such as being too familiar with the road and becoming overconfident, hidden signs, or complicated traffic situations. They can also be internal, related to the driver's condition, such as fatigue, stress, alcohol or drug consumption, and certain behaviors like using a mobile phone or eating while driving.


These multiple causes and situations contribute to the increasing frequency of accidents due to distractions, highlighting the importance of maintaining full attention while driving.
