NHTSA Withheld Data Showing Risks of Distracted Driving
According to the New York Times, Federal agency researchers were going to do a study starting in 2003. They were going to study 10,000 drivers over a period of time to determine the risks by cell phone use in vehicles. But the study was never official because there was pressure about upsetting Congress. The former head of NHTSA said it was suggested that they only gather the data and withhold the research.
Hundreds of pages from the research are being made public today for the first time due to two consumer groups, Center for Auto Safety and Public Citizen.
The researchers estimated in 2002 that cell phones used by drivers caused about 955 fatalities and 240,000 accidents that year.
People say that by not publishing the findings, lives have been lost and the problem that we are looking at could be as bad as drunk driving!

Cell Phone and Texting Tickets
It is a lot easier for California Police to ticket California drivers holding cell phones to their ears and not using a hands free device than to ticket a driver texting. It is estimated that over 200,000 tickets have been written in the past year to driver’s not using hands free devices while only a few hundred have been written to drivers either texting or being texted. The problem is that police officers have a hard time determining when texting is being done by a driver.
Officials are very concerned because texting is on the rise and is considered more distracting then talking on a cell phone. Please don’t text while you drive.

Dangers of Distracted Driving
Research has shown that distracted drivers are dangerous. Drivers using cell phones are four times as likely to cause a crash as drivers that are not using their cell phones. It has also been found that hands free devices do not improve ones safety. It actually creates a false sense that what you are doing is okay.
And then there is texting. Texting also known as SMS (short message service) is on the rise. Car and Driver Magazine did a test to determine just how dangerous it can be. They rigged a car with a red light to alert drivers when to brake and tested how long it takes to brake. The results showed that an unimpaired driver took .54 seconds to brake, someone reading an e-mail an additional 36 feet, and someone sending a text an additional 70 feet in order to brake. The test was done at 70 mph.
Unfortunately, Americans are ignoring the studies and are increasingly trying to multitask in the their vehicles. So the next time you want to text, tweet, or e-mail, while driving, either ignore the urge or pull over!
