158 | Distracted Driving

What to Expect:

What is distraction anyway? We have largely pinned this discussion around phones, but phones are relatively recent and people have been driving distractedly for a long time. We discuss under what conditions people drive distractedly and interventions to reduce distracted driving. If you’re reading this while driving, STOP! Eyes back on the road!
