Smoking while driving...
Human factor: Physical factors
Explanation
Smoking while driving **is not advisable** because it can negatively affect the driver's attention. Here's why:
- **Distraction**: Searching for and lighting a cigarette diverts the driver's attention from the road, increasing the risk of accidents.
- **Occupied hands**: Holding a cigarette means one hand is occupied, which can make it difficult to control the vehicle.
- **Reduced visibility**: Cigarette smoke can obstruct the driver's vision, making it harder to see the road clearly.
- **Air quality**: Smoke inside the car deteriorates air quality, which can affect the driver's ability to concentrate and react appropriately.
In summary, smoking at the wheel can distract and reduce the driver's responsiveness, increasing the risk of accidents. Therefore, it is better to avoid smoking while driving.
