Abstract
⺠Cell phone use while driving is prevalent among US teens and young adults. ⺠A driving simulator was used to measure traffic inefficiency and safety outcomes. ⺠Inefficiency while driving distracted may contribute to traffic congestion. ⺠Cell phone use while driving also led to diminished safety. ⺠Naturalistic study is needed to see if inefficiencies translate to real driving.
