competence
I lived in the UK for nearly 6 years. I drove every day.
While driving, I: ate all manner of foods, smoked, drank ( non alcoholic beverages ), answered calls, admired the scenery ( landscapes only of course), had rows with the missus, read maps, looked at street signs, cried, coughed, burped, farted, itched, sneezed.
I did all these things while the driving conditions were sunny, foggy, raining, sleeting, snowing, hailing.
Theres probably more, but the point is:
number of collisions: 0
number of speeding tickets: 0
number of demerit points: 0
number of fines: 0
number of times pulled over by police: 0
If you cannot deal with distractions while driving, and continue to operate your vehicle in a safe manner then YOU are the menace.
