MORGANTOWN, WV (AP) — Two West Virginia University
researchers say laws and education efforts dealing with cell phone use
while driving aren't having much effect.
Jeffrey Coben and Motao
Zhu report their conclusions in the latest issue of the Journal of the
American Medical Association. Coben is interim dean of the WVU School of
Public Health.
In the report entitled "Keeping an Eye on
Distracted Driving," the researchers say the number of injuries and
fatalities caused by cell phone use while driving has increased by 22
percent between 2005 and 2009. They say the problem is expected to
worsen despite efforts to curtail distracted driving.
The
researchers say new technology solutions are needed. For example, Coben
says systems could be built into cars to disable hand-held devices when
the vehicle is in motion.
