One of the most frequent causes of distraction while driving, and which can cause a traffic accident, is the use of the mobile phone, even with a hands-free device.
Using the mobile phone:
- Reduces attention: when looking for it, handling it and talking.
- More infractions are committed: within a minute and a half, 40% of signals stop being perceived.
- Distances are calculated worse and the safety distance is reduced.
- Speed is controlled worse: abrupt changes occur (within a minute and a half, speed drops by 12%).
- Trajectory deviations and maneuverability problems occur (the most frequent accident from using the mobile is leaving the road).
- It can disorient us: it is possible to make wrong and dangerous decisions.
