Cognitive Distraction is anything that doesnt allow you to be one-hundred percent contration on what you are doing which is driving, for example talking on the phone, worrying about another situation, thinking about work or even rushing to the hospital or work is cvonsidered cognitive distraction. If you are driving at 60 MPH and take your eyes off the road for just 2 seconds, your car will move 176 feet while you are not looking. 

Cognitive Distraction can be anything at all that prevents you from consentration on driving that can include a baby, a pet or even something thats on your mind and is bothering you. Sending or receiving a text message distracts a driver for about five seconds and at a highway speeds, that is distance of about 300 feet in which the car is with out of human control, driving itself. and is basically a danger to the driver and others as well.

Distacted drivers has been a problem for everybody in my opinon I do think a distracted driving law should be implemted nation wide because it would keep our road much much safer from all age groups of drivers and also protects younger and older drivers incuding babies
