Five seconds
Five seconds isn’t a lot of time in the grand scheme of things. We microwave our leftovers for longer than five seconds. It takes more time than five seconds to melt an ice cube or butter, most faucets don’t run hot water in less than five seconds, and almost everything we do in our daily lives takes longer. However, studies have shown that five seconds could mean the difference between life and death on the roads, as it is said that the average person guilty of texting and driving has only taken their eyes off the road for five seconds.
