Here's a piece of news that is both unsurprising and disturbing: New moms may be among the most distracted drivers on the road. In a survey conducted by American Baby and Safe Kids Worldwide, the majority of more than 2,000 moms of kids under age 2 say they're more careful behind the wheel since giving birth -- but the stats tell a different story. It turns out that most moms THINK we're safer drivers with our precious cargo on board, but the reality is we're tired, distracted, and we have a very bad habit of multitasking with our cellphones. Shockingly, almost 10 percent of the surveyed new moms had experienced an accident with their baby while driving. According to the CDC, more than 1,200 people are injured every day in crashes that involve a distracted driver. How can you keep you and your baby from becoming a statistic? Experts recommend following these rules:Image may be NSFW.
