When I was 16 and in high school it was the height of the mini skirt fashion. Pun intended, short skirts, on 16 year old girls when I was 16 and raging hormones, was real and true distraction. The school dress code said the hem line had to come to the girl's thumbs when holding her arms at her side. I was enjoying the wonderful view of a very short skirt on a really stupefyingly pretty classmate and I rear ended a car that stopped for no reason at all, except the red light!
100% my fault, my dad accepted my excuse. I had to pay for the repairs on my car, and insurance paid off the 40 year old geezer that stopped for no good reason.
That is the last crash I have had except a lady that ran a 2 way only stop sign and drove into me and I had no way to get out of her way, and that was in the mid 1970s. No tickets, no accidents since the 1970s for me, and several hundreds of thousands of miles driven since. I think I got this driving thing figured out.
Biggest tip, hang up the damn phone and DRIVE. Look in all the mirrors, and turn your head before you change lanes. I don't have a fancy modern car with backup cameras and lane departure sensors.
