The most surprising thing about this unit, to me anyway, was how far your car travels in one second, and how many seconds people look away from the road due to digital things like texting, or answering calls, or looking at a picture someone on the passenger side saw on Facebook. It's frightening, really. Even on rural roads when you are going the speed limit, (which usually people never do) your car goes about 14 meters in just one second. Answering a text takes more than just one second.
There wasn't a lot that was hard or confusing for me. The little bit of math that we had to do to convert kilometers into meters and hours into seconds was easy as soon as you knew what you were doing, so this unit came easily to me.
I think the biggest issue for young people when it comes to digital wellness is that we don't think.We have that mindset where we are invincible, and that these stories that we hear tell of would never to happen to us and we will stay that same way we are until we hit our thirties. Because of this, we pursue the world with this reckless abandon which can sometimes prove to us how fragile our bodies actually are.
