Test your reaction times with 'Driven to Distraction' at Kwik Fit

November 22, 2019/ Kristie Prada

As someone who does two different school runs every morning and afternoon I’m spending a lot of time in my car! Combined with running my own business it’s often tempting to try and multitask and answer queries or emails whilst on the go.

You would think as we all know it’s illegal to use your phone while driving that this wouldn’t be an issue today. However, the number of road accidents in which mobiles are a factor has increased by 24% in five years!

So how much should we be checking our screens and just how much difference does it make to your reaction times?

How much Screen Time is too much?

This is one of those uncomfortable moments when you have to write about something you know you need to improve!

I was asked by Vizualize to reflect on how much time I spend at a screen and talk about my findings!

If you’re someone who works at a computer or even on your phone you will know the hours spent looking at a screen are unlikely to be good for you.

My iPhone actually tells me each week how my screen time activity is going, if it’s more or less than the previous week and whether I was productive or just scrolling Facebook!
