How can drivers empower themselves to avoid becoming distracted by objects and events outside the vehicle?

Drivers can empower themselves to avoid distractions from external objects and events by maintaining focus on the road and setting clear intentions before driving. Practicing mindfulness can help them stay present and aware of their surroundings. Additionally, minimizing external stimuli, such as avoiding loud music or keeping Windows up, can reduce distractions. Finally, using techniques like scanning the road ahead for potential hazards can help maintain attention on driving rather than external distractions.
