All of the following practices are dangerous while driving. Which one is also illegal?

Trying to fasten a passenger's seat belt.
Adjusting the mirror.
Listening to music with headphones covering both ears.
Smoking.
Explanation

Listening to music with headphones or earbuds that cover both ears is not only distracting - it is also illegal in many states because it can prevent you from hearing critical sounds such as emergency sirens, horns, or screeching tires. While adjusting mirrors, helping a passenger with a seat belt, or smoking can also be distracting, they are not explicitly prohibited by law. Always stay focused on the driving task and remain aware of your surroundings to ensure everyone's safety on the road.
