Cell phone use while driving poses significant risks, according to two surveys conducted by AAA Foundation. The surveys found over half of drivers admit to talking on a cell phone while driving at least occasionally, with 16-17% doing so regularly. Younger drivers aged 25-34 reported the highest rates of cell phone use while driving. Additionally, 14-17% of drivers admit to reading or sending text messages while driving occasionally, with 3% doing so regularly and young drivers being most likely. However, most drivers do not perceive hands-free use as carrying similar risks to hand-held phones, despite studies finding no safety difference. The AAA Foundation aims to increase awareness of driving risks related to cell phone use.
