There's usually too much going on around me to try and concentrate on anything other than driving. My daily commute takes me past the local Sheriff's office and a couple of spots where traffic cops are actively patrolling so I try not to do things that would attract attention. I don't use my phone in the car and know the controls on my mp3 player well enough that I don't have to look at it to change settings.
I tend to do things when I'm stopped at traffic lights. Brush my hair at one stop and twist it up at the next. Sometimes I'll jot down a reminder or add something to my grocery list. When the college students descend on the town in the fall (35,000 coming in a couple of weeks), the traffic gets busier and the wait time at traffic lights get longer. There's one spot where (if I time it wrong) I can spend up to 10 minutes stopped or creeping along. I usually just people watch during that time, but I have been known to browse through a magazine or catalog while waiting.
