Distracted Driving Information & Guidance

Here is a resource which you may find useful - http://www.sr22insurance.net/distracted-driving/.  From the source:

We believe that the best way to encourage responsible driving is through education which is why we are working with other organisations and bodies just like yours to ensure that this information reaches as many people as possible.

When asked, 94 percent of Americans said that distracted driving is a major threat to safety for everyone on the road. And, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), roughly 10 percent of drivers are talking on a cellphone during any given daylight moment.

According to numerous studies, distracted driving is at least as bad as, or worse than, driving while drunk. This means that, at any given moment, there are 974,000 drivers on the road who are perfectly sober but more impaired than a drunk driver.
