From texting while walking to eating at your computer desk, there are plenty of parts of our daily routine that most of us should rethink. Here are six everyday habits that could kill you one day.
#1 – Texting While You Walk/Drive
Texting while you’re taking a walk or driving might not affect your health in any way, but it can certainly be deadly if you don’t pay enough attention to your surroundings. A recent study has shown that people who are crossing an intersection while texting were around four times less likely to look before traversing, which increases the risk of being hit by a vehicle, especially if the driver is texting as well. To summarize – texting is dangerous while you’re performing tasks that demand your maximum concentration.
