  • Abstract:
    This is a fairly unbiased review of the issue of driver distraction framed for used in the EU. From the perspective of providing new data this paper is lacking, however this does framing for the EU and the more international perspective is interesting when compared to the US based reviews. Generally the position of this review is that hands-free is not safer than hand-held. While this paper liberally cites research studies, it does not highlight the specific methodological concerns with various research reports. This review concludes with a number of sensible research-based recommendations for action.
