The recent issue of BMJ raised concerns about injuries caused by using mobile phones during driving, "Not quite. Researchers are more concerned with what injuries you might pick up from using your phone. A team from Rutgers New Jersey Medical School in the US studied mobile phone related injuries over 20 years (1998-2017) and found that the number had increased from a rate of around two to 27 per one million person years. Injuries included fractures, dislocations, and even internal organ injury"
My question is have you studied the impact of using mobile phones during driving? What were the results from your local community/country?
Dear Samy,
I am not working on this topic but I can share data from the French association for road safety : 10% of accident are linked to mobil use
