Me as a supertasker

According to this survery there are only 2.5% of population that can drive while talking on phone. I am definitely one of them. I am well trained on this and in fact i just made a business call (with speakers!) while driving back to office a while ago.

i think there is clearly one blindspot in this research, that driving and talking are not straight forward. The entire thing is driving and talking are two complex sets of behavior and different scenarios will dictate how much attention the mind has to use to complete a task. Conducting business on phone definitely needs more thinking than talking gossips, and driving through a rainstorm or squeezing through a tunnel definitely is much harder than driving on an empty freeway.

Also your ability to drive and ability to talk also play a critical role on how a brain needs to function. I am an OK driver and to me driving on road, even zigzagging through the traffic, is as simple as playing TV games, but there are people who think driving is a much more serious matter. The same happens to speaking ability too, Barack Obama is defintiely better in talking than anyone of us

Anyway it is nice to know i am among the top 2.5% of the population! maybe someone will hire me as a fighter jet pilot?
