Refueling while the engine is running
Talking to riders or getting distracted while driving
Ensuring all seatbelts are fastened

The correct answer is: Talking to riders or getting distracted while driving

The prohibition against talking to riders or getting distracted while driving is crucial for ensuring the safety of both the driver and passengers. Distractions can significantly impair a driver's ability to focus on the road, increasing the risk of accidents. When a driver engages in conversation or is distracted by other activities related to the passengers, it diverts their attention from driving tasks, such as monitoring traffic signals, maintaining lane discipline, and being aware of their surroundings. Additionally, maintaining concentration is essential for quick decision-making, especially in situations that require immediate responses. As a result, regulations often emphasize minimizing distractions in commercial driving contexts to foster a safer driving environment. This focus aligns with best practices in safe driving and is critical for all drivers, particularly those operating vehicles with multiple passengers.
