Q: A study says that this behavior is blamed for 2500 car accidents per week during the winter. What is it?
A: Sneezing and Nose Blowing
SNEEZING DRIVERS CAUSE ACCIDENTS: If you have a bad cold you should really stay off the roads, researchers say. A study conducted by British company Halfords Autocentres, finds that sneezing and nose blowing are the behaviors to blame for 2,500-accidents per week during the winter. Researchers say drivers can travel as far as 50-feet with their eyes closed during a sneeze. The study found that nine-percent of Britain’s 2.6-million drivers admitted to taking their eyes off the road due to a cold or flu. (Daily Mail)
