Focus on the Road
The BRSC wants to remind the motoring public of the need to give their full focus while driving or riding. Distracted driving is as dangerous as speeding or driving while intoxicated, because in a moment anything can happen, and the driver is not able to react sufficiently.
While driving, all drivers must drive at the appropriate distance behind the vehicle in front of them to have adequate time to react, this time is called the Reaction Time.
