Beyond "not normal," this will cause disability and death at massive scale.

Humans don't multitask as well as we like to think we do, but this paper showed that people in a driving simulator kept driving very well despite distractions and multitasking. They just prioritized safe driving over doing the other stuff. I wish real drivers were this considerate...

Compensations, eg slowing movement time in order to maintain safe driving and task accuracy. That's a good thing!

They showed more hand-before-eye movement, which is also a good adaptation. Reach first, then look away from the road for less time to do guide reach only at the end

Read the study.

Important topic and distracted driving is a problem, but this paper did NOT show evidence of performance degradation.
With higher cognitive load:
NO incr centerline deviation
NO worsening pedal control
FEWER prolonged distractions
NO higher error rates

What did they show? Safe adaptations and

There's also evidence that people who have gotten flu shots have lower dementia risk. Covid shots seem to lower dementia risk

We don't know exactly how it works but there are some intriguing theories related to inflammation in the brain

There have been several good research studies showing that shingles vax lowers dementia risk. There is even a difference between the newer/ better shot and the old one. This is a critical finding because ppl who get 💉 are different than ppl who do not, so can have higher confidence it's real

At a certain point, allowing mass shootings is a deliberate policy decision.

We're way beyond that point.
