04/23/19 The Distracted Driving Epidemic

Peggy and Phil Renaud, executive director, The Risk Institute, talk about research related to the distracted-driving epidemic.

We need both legislation and behavioral changes to address it. He also indicates that urban planning—and roundabouts—can reduce the crash severities.
