**Distractions** while driving can occur due to **anything inside or outside the vehicle** that diverts the driver's attention. This includes both internal and external factors.

- **Internally**, inside the vehicle, distractions can be caused by actions such as using a mobile phone, lighting a cigarette, using the GPS, looking at a map, or even eating and drinking while driving. These activities require the driver to divert their attention from the road, which can lead to accidents.

- **Externally**, outside the vehicle, distractions can arise from observing something in the environment, such as a shop window or a complicated traffic situation with many vehicles and pedestrians. Additionally, conditions like lack of visibility at night or the glare from other cars' lights can also distract the driver.

Therefore, it is important for drivers to maintain their attention both inside and outside the vehicle to avoid accidents due to distraction.
