Abstract
► Driving performance deteriorates in the presence of mobile phone distraction. ► Distraction errors in a simulator also occur when refraining from answering a call. ► Low habitual intention to ignore calls whilst driving increases distraction effect. ► Effects of intention and control imply cognitive cost of inhibiting response. ► Switching phones off or setting to silent is safer.
