We should never bring our kids with us in the car anymore either. When my kids start bickering in the back seat (he touched me, she's looking at me, MO-O-O-M!!!!) or when the infant in the back seat drops his pacifier and I have to reach around to give it back to him. All distracting. No more kids.
And I have to also include outside noises, too. What about people in the car next to me playing their bass so loud their car shakes? What about sirens? Man those fire trucks coming through the redlight with sirens wailing could really distract someone.

Other driver distractions:
- auto accidents on the road. Man, people turn their necks far to see what all the commotion is. This backs up traffic and sometimes cause more accidents!
- Billboards. I often find myself reading the billboards and when my eyes finally look back to the road, I'm in the next lane!
- car washes ... people waving towels and holding posters about their fundraiser car wash. I ran a light once because I was too busy reading which high school hosted the latest carwash!
- People collecting money at street corners for whatever charity it might be. Too distracting
- My nose. I sneeze and my damned eyes close!! Then I open my eyes and woh! There's a car stopped in front of me.
