Project background: In the past few years, driver distraction from cell phone use has become a hot issue, with many states rushing to pass laws to regulate or ban the use of electronic devices while driving. While cell phone use is known to reduce driver attention and performance, there is limited understanding of the impact that these laws have on roadway safety.
In November 2013 the SafeTREC website moved to the Drupal open-source content management system. This system allows our researchers and staff to upload materials in a more timely manner so that we can share them with our users more readily and in a format that is easier to discover.
