Home » Distractions trigger up to half of vehicle crashes
All motorists engage in potentially dangerous distracting activity while driving, according to a new observational research study released last week by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. It's estimated that distracted driving accounts for 25 percent to 50 percent of all motor vehicle crashes.
Despite the problem, only six states' driver's license manuals contain specific sections on distracted driving, according to a new survey released today by AAA. The group wants states to include a model section on distracted driving in their driver's license manuals and educational material.
