Abstract
Evidence suggests that distracted driving leads to crashes and near crashes. It is unknown if the prevalence of crashes during the performance of secondary tasks, including cell-phone use while driving, differs amongst novice and experienced drivers. This case-cohort observational study used vehicle cameras, accelerometers, forward radar, a global positioning system, and a machine-vision lane tracker in 42 newly licensed drivers and 109 experienced drivers to observe and collect while driving. They then correlated crashes and near crashes with secondary tasks observed.
