  • Distracted Driving Prevention Each Day in the United States, About 9 People Are Killed and More Than 1,000 People Are Injured in Crashes Due to Distracted Driving
    R ADAMS COWLEY SHOCK TRAUMA CENTER, UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND PREVENTION MATTERS THE CENTER FOR INJURY PREVENTION AND POLICY Distracted Driving Prevention Each day in the United States, about 9 people are killed and more than 1,000 people are injured in crashes due to distracted driving. Distracted driving is any activity that takes your attention off of driving. Many people think they are good at doing more than one thing at a time, or ‘multitasking.’ In reality, our brain does not ‘multitask’ – it ‘switches’ between tasks. If your brain is more focused on one task, there is less brainpower to devote to other tasks. There are many sources of distraction while driving, but cell phones are one of the top distractions because so many drivers are using them for long periods during the day. Even hands-free use of cell phones is distracting because it can cause “inattention blindness,” where your brain is not processing, responding to, or monitoring your surroundings appropriately. National Safety Council (NSC) studies show that drivers using hands-free devices are still less likely to notice exits, red lights, stop signs and other important cues. Other forms of distraction include: Public Attitudes about Distracted Driving • Eating and drinking A 2016 Survey by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found • Talking to passengers that drivers age 19-24 were: • Reaching for items • More likely to report reading or typing text messages while driving • Carrying out personal hygiene • More likely to find texting while driving acceptable • Interacting with the car’s entertainment or navigation system (even hands-free) • Less likely to support legislation aimed at curbing distractions The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety also reported 58% of teens involved in crashes were distracted.
