We thought texting and walking was the problem, but it gets worse. According to the UK Automobile Association, the iPod is the reason for more than 17 accidents per day. They call it, "iPod Oblivion."
What is iPod Oblivion? As it sounds, it's the digital distraction from listening to Daft Punk too loudly while walking down the street. It makes people like joggers and cyclists ignore what's around them and miss a car whizzing by. And sometimes they get hurt.
Seems like common sense to us, but maybe it's time to turn the volume down a notch?
