• Abstract:
  The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration conducted its second national survey of distracted driving to monitor the public’s attitudes, knowledge, and self-reported behavior about cell phones, texting, and driver choices. The first distracted driving survey was conducted in 2010. The 2012 survey was administered by telephone to 6,016 respondents 16 and older, with 3,872 interviews completed with respondents who were using landline phones and 2,144 interviews completed with respondents who were using cell phones. The survey over-sampled young adults 16 to 34. Interviewing was conducted from February to June 2012. This edition of "Traffic Tech" reviews the findings of this survey.
